Brianna's Bio:

Before moving to Indiana, Brianna worked as a morning reporter at 9NEWS in Denver, Colorado. Prior to that, she was morning anchor at WPSD in Kentucky where she worked for eight years and earned numerous awards. Brianna started her journalism career in 2013 as a reporter at KTIV in Sioux City, Iowa, covering severe storms and sharing stories that impacted local communities.

Growing up in Minnesota near the Twin Cities in the town of Afton, Brianna spent her summers riding four-wheelers and her winters on a snowboard.

Brianna is a graduate of the University of South Dakota, with a bachelor’s degree in multimedia journalism and a minor in theatre. She was a producer, anchor, and reporter for the school’s television news station, Coyote News, and a member of the South Dakota Alpha Chapter of Pi Beta Phi.

Brianna is the recipient of five Emmy Awards from two different chapters, most recently for Breaking/Spot News for her coverage of the devastating Mayfield tornado that killed 74 people in Kentucky.

In 2024, Brianna was awarded the Kentucky Broadcasters Association Freedom of Information Award for news coverage related to the death of Calloway County Chief Deputy Jody Cash.

With a passion for truth-telling, Brianna strives to shed light on issues affecting individuals, actively seeking answers to some of the most difficult questions.

Brianna has a wide range of interests. She is a fan of playwright Anton Chekhov and musician Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. Occasionally, you might find her fishing, trying to hike a trail, or pretending she still knows how to snowboard.
