“Like many people, I grew up on educational shows like Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and The Electric Company which then led me to Julia Child's cooking shows and Austin City Limits for great music performances. It was always a go-to source for learning and entertainment. Now, public media is more important than ever in helping people better understand the world around them. I love that I can work in a media organization that cares about its community and is a force for good in the world!”
