Sports Anchor / Reporter
Every day Vancouver Island athletes put forth incredible stories, and it’s Jordan’s job to tell them. As Sports Anchor and Videographer at CTV News, Jordan gets trampled on the sidelines of the island’s biggest (and sometimes smallest) events chronicling the exploits of our athletes.
Shooting, reporting and anchoring gave Jordan the opportunity to follow Steve Nash to Phoenix during his NBA MVP seasons, cover the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, as well as follow island teams across BC and Canada in their pursuit of excellence.
Jordan has called Vancouver Island home since 1989, but still hasn’t been cured of his Edmonton Oiler fandom. He’s equally nutty about the New York Yankees.
Awards:
- 2006 Edward R. Murrow award for Best Sports Reporting “Steve Nash”
- 2010 Edward R. Murrow award for Video Sports Reporting “FIFA Flaws”
- 2011 RTNDA Regional for Best Short Feature “Goats Predict Playoff Win”
Education:
- Studied Applied Communications — Camosun College (Victoria, BC)
Extracurricular:
Jordan can be found running or cycling all over Victoria’s trails and roadways, and still gets down to the same music he listened to in high school. He’s also a major nerd when it comes to fantasy football and baseball. He once signed a tryout contract with the NBA’s Denver Nuggets and his favourite city to visit is New York. Jordan is Dad to a fantastic little boy named Tommy.
