So thankful to have the support of my great WHIO-TV colleagues led by Cheryl McHenry and James Brown as I move to retirement. Cheryl has a story about my 33 years at the station coming up at 5 pm today.

If it wasn’t for Bill Cohen, I would have never landed at the Statehouse. It was great to learn from the best in the business. And all these years later, so thankful that the Statehouse Bureau is today the gold standard for broadcast coverage of Statehouses nationwide.

And another note of appreciation: our Ohio Public Radio and TV Statehouse News Bureau of @joingles, @andy_chow, @stateofohioshow and I would likely not be here doing this if it weren't for @JOtteWHIO and our retired colleague Bill Cohen, who helped start it back in 1980

I’d say WHIO had a successful day at the SPJ award ceremony! 12 awards total. I took first place for Best Education Issues Reporting. Congratulations @whiotv team!
