I didn't want to just be an analyst for women's basketball and volleyball. I didn't just want to be a sideline reporter. I didn't just want to be a host. I wanted to be someone that my producers or coordinating producers could call on me for any event, any subject matter or any role.

I'm energized by this idea that's live television. In the same way as an athlete when they get on the field or on the court, you have to perform in that moment or it's past you and you've missed.

But as a reporter, that’s how you know you’re doing a good job - when no one’s talking about you. And something has gone wrong if they are."

I think when I got into broadcasting I told myself, ‘I don't ever want to be pigeonholed as one thing.'"
