"The job of a local television host is to inform the community while helping the audience learn more about the place they call home. Whether it’s promoting an upcoming event or highlighting the services that a small business or nonprofit organization brings to the area, it’s always a good time hosting Living Local. I get to connect with community leaders and advocates alike while having fun on screen. Each day is different, and you never know what segment will reach someone at home. It’s an uplifting job and one that helps spread positivity to those who tune in. I enjoy meeting new people every day and challenging myself to try something new more times than not."
