ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 One of my favorite parts of what we do with \u201cTrooper Steve on Patrol\u201d is introducing you to the people who help tell the stories that matter most in our community.<\/p>\n
On Thursday\u2019s stream, we got to do just that. I introduced you to our newest community correspondent, Amy Russo, and right away, you can tell she\u2019s someone who\u2019s going to make an impact.<\/p>\n
Amy was born in Alabama but raised right here in Florida, so she understands the heartbeat of our communities. What I found really interesting is that her path didn\u2019t start in journalism. She originally had her sights set on the medical field, but along the way, she discovered a talent and a passion for public speaking.<\/p>\n
That passion led her straight into storytelling.<\/p>\n
Now, she\u2019s part of our team here at News 6, and she\u2019s ready to help bring your stories to life.<\/p>\n
During our time together on the stream, you got a chance to see her personality, hear her story, and get a feel for the energy she\u2019s bringing to the team. And trust me, there\u2019s more to her than just reporting.<\/p>\n
We also learned she\u2019s a pretty serious cook\u2026 so that might be something we have to explore a little more down the road.<\/p>\n
Take a few minutes and check out the full Trooper Steve on Patrol stream to meet Amy Russo for yourself. I think you\u2019ll see exactly why we\u2019re excited to have her here.<\/p>\n
And as always, thanks for riding along with me.<\/p>\n
