Podcasts, Video, TV Broadcasts
At The Plain Dealer/Cleveland.com, I hosted “The Wake Up” daily news podcast, which was available on streaming platforms and played on Amazon Alexa devices when people in Greater Cleveland asked Alexa for the day’s news briefing. I was also a guest on “This Week in the CLE.”
I hosted engaging livestreams on Cleveland.com’s social media to report on breaking news, showcase interesting stories, and share live events. I interacted with our digital audience by responding to comments, asking questions, and offering insightful commentary.
During my internship at WKYC-TV (NBC Cleveland), I appeared on-camera and assisted in dozens of segments and programs:
Research Assistant: “One for the Money” consumer investigative reporting and “VERIFY” fact-checking segments.
Production & Digital Assistant: “Live on Lakeside” and “We The People” midday local news and community programming.
