She will lead and inform coverage of the Washington Legislature, governor’s office, state agencies, and other state entities — and will look beyond the capitol dome to focus on the people affected by officials’ decisions.

Plus, how local governments use AI, the story behind Rachel's Playground, and a play about the Baha’i faith in Iran. The KNKX News team shares the stories they're most proud of.

Music is one of the most evocative parts of the holiday season. KNKX's holiday programming includes seasonal favorites and year-end reflections.
