What was your biggest accomplishment this past year?
“Coming to work for Civic Media. I had been out of radio for a while focusing on going to school and a career in Marketing.

I am very proud of the stories and coverage I’ve been able to provide to Northeast Wisconsin through the newscasts, web stories, and NEWisco Weekend.”
