Hello there! I'm the new kid on the block and am beyond excited to join the KROC News Team. I come to Rochester from Winona where I went to college and learned the ropes of this wonderful radio thing. I grew up as a Minnesota sports fan behind enemy lines in western Wisconsin. There's a good chance I'll be out on the golf course in season and counting down the days until my next tee shot in the winter.
