Sage Smiley - KYUK
Sage Smiley is KYUK's news director. She’s worked with audio since she was a teenager at radio stations from Alaska to Amman and is passionate about sound-rich storytelling, rural radio and community-centered journalism. When not slinging a shotgun microphone around town, she can likely be found in or around a body of water.
