In 2010, I joined Prairie Meadows Racetrack & Casino as the race track's on-camera commentator, interviewer, host, and analyst for the live horse racing season from April through October. In the off-season (November-April), I work free-lance jobs in the racing industry. My experience has included responsibilities for the Breeders' Cup and historic Hialeah Park in Florida. In November of 2013, Hialeah Park engaged my services and skills as Director of Publicity covering Quarter Horse racing and entertainment at the Miami-area race track and casino.

I have visited quite a few tracks for the AQHA including Los Alamitos, Hialeah Park, Hoosier Park, Fair Grounds, and Sunland Park. During my stay as Sports Director at KTUU-TV2 in Anchorage, AK, I hired a young sports intern at the television station. Her name then was Sarah Heath. you know her today as Sarah Palin.
