Author. Speaker. Moderator.
Award-Winning Journalist

IN JUNE OF ‘21, I STEPPED DOWN AS HOST OF THE EXCHANGE ON NEW HAMPSHIRE PUBLIC RADIO AFTER 25 YEARS.

It was work that I loved doing and I know it deeply mattered to my audience. My team was great: three talented, caring producers and a manager who always supported me. All that, plus: I met so many amazing guests who shared their stories, their talents, their ideas with me, live on-the-air.

But I had to say good-bye to the news business. I had a new adventure to begin. It was time to take a different approach toward contributing to my state and the wider society .

So here’s just a taste of what I’ve been up to since I left…
Two major projects focused on mental health and wellness.
A strategic, statewide, community discussion series about civic strength.
Keynote speeches, talks, panel moderating for a dozen different events.
ReadLocalNH: A podcastthat celebrates New Hampshire's authors, local bookstores and their dedicated readers.
And of course…my own novel!

Here are some of my favorite titles from local authors:

The Concord Theatre by Paul Brogan The Limits of Limelight by Margaret Porter The Children's Secret by Virginia MacGregor Point of Graves by J. Dennis Robinson Pauper Auction by Mary Kronerwetter In Her Boots by KJ Dell'Antonia

I am an experienced keynote speaker, moderator, narrator, voiceover professional, interviewer and host. As a community leader and award-winning journalist with years of engaging in meaningful dialogue with world-wide experts, I love to collaborate on a variety of initiatives.
