RIVR Program Coordinator, John Sallee, talks about Rising Indigenous Voices Radio, it's unique programming and an exciting audience engagement initiative happening with the Alaska School Activities Association (ASAA) March Madness Basketball Tournament.

Kelly grew up in the Midwest among farms and fertile soils. Outfitted with a B.A. in Communications and a minor in Film Studies, she moved to Nome, Alaska to work for a community-driven, nonprofit radio station. There she became versed in local radio, holding a range of jobs from Program and Music Director to producer and on-air host. Every day she’s in awe of the connection and companionship only local radio provides. When not working, Kelly and her spouse happily spend their time traveling, appreciating the true wild, and creating artsy things.
