A native Texan, Rusty began his television career in Victoria, Texas -- his hometown--in the early 1980's and has been head of weather departments in Longview/Tyler and Lufkin/Nacogdoches before coming to News 10.

Rusty's wife Ann is a local school teacher and they are the proud parents of a son, Will, who attends college locally. The three make their home in Waco.

Rusty's community involvement has made him one of the most recognized and beloved personalities in the area. He has served on the board of directors for the United Way and The American Red Cross. For 20 years, he has tirelessly spearheaded a 16 county school weather safety program called "Project Tornado" and is in constant demand speaking to tens of thousands of children throughout school districts around the area.
