As a native of Coeur d’ Alene, ID, Karin grew up on SPR. She ecstatically explored radio broadcasting during university at the Princeton-affiliated public radio station WPBR and was awestruck to interview leading writers, politicians and scientists for the nationally syndicated “American Focus” public affairs interview program. While academic research and management consulting took her across the country and around Europe, she is delighted to return to the Inland Northwest and the SPR listening community. When not at the station, Karin loves to witness storytelling (at the theatre, via a Spokane Symphony concert, on a spoken word stage . . .) and is busy writing her own stories.
