Hello Knox Pages readers,
My name is Grant Ritchey and I’m the newest Report For America corps member joining the Knox Pages team. I’ll be covering education and the growing workforce in Knox County, though any story suggestions are appreciated and encouraged.
Before starting in Knox Pages, I was a general assignment reporter for the Ashland Times-Gazette based in Ashland County from March 2020 to May 2021.
Before the TG, I graduated from Ohio University in 2020 with a bachelor’s degree in journalism. I played clarinet in the Marching 110 for three years and was part of the Singing Men of Ohio.
I was a student journalist at The Post, an independent student newspaper throughout my time at OU.
In my free time I like to play video games, read too many true crime books, walk along bike trails and watch Dallas Cowboys football games. I enjoy an iced latte anytime of the year too.
If you have any tips, suggestions or just want to chat, shoot me an email! You can find me at gritchey@knoxpages.com.
Thank you all and I’m looking forward to getting started!
