When I was hired at East Idaho News nine years ago, my boss, Nate Eaton, asked me what types of stories I was interested in.
I started doing business reports, and that eventually led to the launch of Biz Buzz. Thanks to you, this weekly business column has become one of our most-read features. It has been inspiring to meet men and women across eastern Idaho who work to provide a product or service that improves or enhances people’s lives.
After eight years in this role, I am passing my passion project onto someone else. Beginning next week, EastIdahoNews.com reporter Cody Roberts will deliver daily business news and be the weekly face behind Biz Buzz.
Telling these types of stories has been a thrill for me, and in all honesty, I’m sad about handing over my creation to someone else. But I know that Cody will do an excellent job, and I’m excited to see what he does with it.
He’s been working as a freelance reporter for a while and was recently hired as a full-time journalist to fill this role. You’ve likely seen his name on stories before. I sat down with him to get to know him and discuss this transition, which you can watch in the video above.
