Before I came to HSN, I...
...worked in Minneapolis at Cable Value Network with many of the present hosts.

My first day on the job...
...I was sweating bullets, but not from being nervous. The air conditioner in my apartment and my car broke. It was 90 degrees, and I showed up for my first day looking like I just stepped out of a bath tub.

My biggest live HSN blunder was...
...demonstrating a portable picnic table. I told everyone it could hold a 300-pound person. It could have, if I'd had all the pieces put together correctly. When I sat on the table, KABOOM - it collapsed.

Off camera, I...
...like to have fun with my crew and keep the atmosphere as friendly as possible.
