I've been a journalist for the past seven years, working at some of the monthly newspapers in St. Paul before I latched on at the Stillwater Gazette as an editorial assistant. From there I became a reporter, covering everything there is in the St. Croix Valley until I became the Gazette's managing editor in 2007.
