I'm a 1996 graduate of St. Cloud State University, and have been with Townsqauare Media for over 16 years now as a news reporter and anchor. About a year ago I also began co-hosting a sports talk show called Grantie City Cafe on AM 1390. While news is my business, sports are my love. I am a big fan of the Vikings, Twins, Gopher's men's basketball and to a lesser extent Wolves and Wild. My favorite passtimes are spending time with my three kids, riding snowmobile in the winter and golfing, wakeboarding and sand volleyball in the summer.
