Producer of the GNA Morning Show/middays. I've lived in Schenectady my whole life and even bought a house there recently with my boyfriend Jim. I'm adventurous, outdoorsy, travelled (Can you tell I don't like to sit still for very long?) but I also like sitting on the couch writing my local blog while watching Investigation Discovery and binge-watching Netflix.
