Q & A

Why did you became a journalist?

I gravitated toward journalism because I like to learn new things about the world. I also highly value journalism’s role of informing the public.

How did you get into radio?
It’s a funny life, working in radio without actually being on the radio. I chose to work in public radio because of its strong commitment toward public service journalism. I’ve found a great niche working on the digital side, which offers exciting new opportunities with the benefit of public radio’s existing reach and reputation.

How did you end up at CPR?
The opportunity to join a growing organization in a beautiful state proved too tempting to pass up. I’m excited to join CPR News and learn more about this great state.
