I am building a racially diverse and inclusive newsroom serving this region. Because this is how we will deliver 🔥 public radio. The work is hard. And sometimes I am spent. But let me just say: The haters whtried to knock me down did not succeed. 💪🏽

Yes, that WAS JUAN GABRIEL playing just now on @knkxfm! At the end of a @LillyAFowler story about not being a perfect Mexican daughter. On @npratc hosted by @EmilMoffatt . Giving @TGIFreddy and I all the feels. Just the latest example of how we're making cool public radio.

On our airwaves at 5:44pm. How we're covering the region.
