Lucas Brady Woods
Originally from Southern California, Lucas spent the last decade living in New York City, which is where he started his journalism career. He's been an audio journalism junkie for as long as he can remember, but really fell in love with reporting radio news at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, where he received his master's degree.
Before he became a journalist, Lucas produced indie movies, documentaries, and commercials. He's also had a lifelong fascination with history and, despite living in the city for so long, with nature as well.
