Born and raised in East Tennessee, she combines strong narrative skills with a unique interest in global severe weather, particularly in undeserved regions like India and China. Her work bridges science communication and empathy in a way that resonates with a new generation of weather enthusiasts. Carly Anna, welcome to the show!
