Ken came to NSPR through the back door as a volunteer, doing all the things that volunteers do. Almost nothing – nothing -- in his previous work experience suggests that he would ever be on public radio.

Ava is NSPR’s Morning Edition anchor and reporter.

They love NorCal and spending time outdoors.
