Before Las Vegas, Ross reported and anchored at WZVN in Fort Myers, FL, covering major natural disasters such as Hurricane Irma. His first job on air was at WENY in Elmira, NY.
Ross grew up near Boston but has long considered Philadelphia home. He graduated from Temple in 2014, where he studied journalism and hosted a sports talk show on Temple's student-run radio station, WHIP. He also worked at KYW Newsradio as a desk assistant and service aide.
Ross and his wife enjoy exploring Philly, traveling, cooking, and going on walks and hikes with their 5-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog, Phil. Ross enjoys golfing, volunteering, and watching sports with friends. Ross couldn't be happier to be back in the city he loves most.
