As Airwaves Editor, I am proud to champion PBS Wisconsin – where my lifelong love of public media comes full circle. Raised on Arthur, Reading Rainbow and The Magic School Bus, I now turn to Lucy Worsley, Ken Burns and Rick Steves to keep exploring.

Andrew Carlson

Canoer of Madison lakes. Sipper of pinot noir. Singer of cringeworthy pop punk karaoke. Proud cat dad. When I'm not these things (although I'm never not proud of my cat), I'm engaging communities across the state through my role at PBS Wisconsin!

Becky Marburger

As a member of our Marketing and Communications team, I help share PBS Wisconsin's story, including the content we produce and opportunities we provide. Outside the office, you'll likely find me with my nose in a book, outdoors or farming!

Mike DeVine

I’m a public relations specialist for PBS Wisconsin who enjoys promoting the wide range of programming that we offer. When I’m not sharing the stories of PBS Wisconsin content, I enjoy going to concerts, watching movies, reading and traveling (Always open to recommendations for my next destination!).

Mark Riechers

Mark is a digital content editor for PBS Wisconsin. He's been working in public media since 2016. One time — for a story, promise — he rode a bike pulled by two dogs that ran the Iditarod.

Samantha Nash

I’m a project manager at PBS Wisconsin, and formerly an associate editor at WisContext. When I’m not scouring the state for fun music and arts content, I’m usually being forced to go on a hike by my demanding border collie or being forced to read on the couch by my demanding cats.

Sigrid Peterson

I'm a digital producer at PBS Wisconsin. I make our digital shenanigans compelling, friendly, and interactive so viewers can access great PBS programming over the air, on the web, on a boat, in a moat, in a box, with a fox. . . you catch my drift.

Tara Lovdahl

As a publicist for PBS Wisconsin, I love helping people learn about and engage with our wonderful programs. I also enjoy gardening, baking, playing board games and watching movies.

Tawny Morrison

I'm a communications specialist who shares about the wonderful world of PBS Wisconsin Education and PBS KIDS. I love spending time with my family and I believe having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card.
