It’s an honor to know I’ll be working alongside such talented and dedicated journalists,” says Anderson. “With loved ones in Wisconsin, and growing up in Michigan, I’m so thankful to be closer to family by working in the Midwest again. For years I’ve told friends that Milwaukee is a city I’ve been striving to get to, and I’m grateful that time has finally arrived. I’m ready to hit the ground running with the best news team in Milwaukee!”
