He was a multimedia and communications specialist for Erie County and NCCC until 2012, when he was named VP/GM of WBBZ-TV in Buffalo.

Koshinski now hosts a weekly sports program called "All Sports WNY" and created a popular website by the same name,www.allsportswny.com, in 2011.

The parade, which once again will feature Santa Claus and a food drive, is organized and presented by the Town of Niagara, the Town of Niagara Business and Professional Association Inc. and the Niagara USA Chamber.
