I’m the News Director for WFHR and WIRI radio stations in the Wisconsin Rapids area. I co-host The Morning Show on WFHR several days a week and am host of a new show called Community Stories. Born and raised in Wisconsin, but new to the Wisconsin Rapids area in 2021, I wanted to get involved with the community. Reporting on hyper-local news and issues seemed like the perfect fit. Now that we’re owned by Civic Media, I’m proud of the growth of our network and how much emphasis is put on keeping each of our stations across Wisconsin as local as they can be. I believe being able to hear the news that’s happening here, helps knit us together as a community and a state. Our new Community Stories show focuses on stories right here in our community. You’ll hear from veterans, first responders, business owners, children in our schools and more. When I’m not on the air, you’ll likely find me at one of our wonderful libraries, parks, or a local community theatre.
