“For seven years, my home and heart has been at The Real. The friendships that I’ve made there will last a lifetime, and the people that I’ve had the blessing to interview have changed my life for the better… To my fellow hosts, I love you, I will miss you, and I will always be there for you…”I’ll be rooting for you, as I look forward to spending time with my family, pursuing amazing nw opportunities, and embarking on the next chapter of my life.”
