Lance began his broadcasting career as a freshman in high school, spinning records at his hometown radio station in Kimball, Neb.

Once he started college he got a taste of the TV bug and hasn’t looked back.

He has worked as a reporter, weathercaster or anchor at stations in Sterling, Colo., Grand Junction, Colo. and Corpus Christi, Texas.

He says working in Denver was a longtime goal.

Lance has covered many memorable stories for 7NEWS, from the Pope’s visit in 1993 to the crash of Continental Flight 1404 in 2008; and from Denver’s trio of tornados in 1988 to the big Windsor tornado in 2008.
