Hi there! I’m Maddie and I’ll be the station’s ~*Tech Director*~ this year. Officially, I’m taking a leave of absence this fall to work full time, but that won’t stop me from Zooming into every WRMC meeting and event until I get back!

This summer, I’ve been doing a remote internship shooting videos and developing curriculum for the math courses at a company where I’ve worked as a computer science instructor for over a year. Long story short, I’m ecstatic about the fact that the quadratic formula actually *was* useful to me as an adult!

When I’m not teaching or doing algebra, I’ve taken the weird circumstances as an opportunity to try new things and get out of my comfort zone. I got really into bullet journalling for a sec, then I became someone who was okay with waking up at 5am (?) to go stand in a river (??) and fly fish (???). My next endeavor, which I’m very excited about, will be editing my friend’s one hour comedy special!

Packed into the moments between all of this has been a lot of music. Here’s a selection of chaotic/addictive/beloved songs that keep me going (obviously I had to include Lilacs which I listen to multiple times a day). Excited for another year of sharing music 🙂
