Mallory Cheng will join Wisconsin Public Radio as midday host and news producer for its new statewide podcast “Wisconsin Today.” Recently, she was a producer at NPR station WUWM-FM 89.7 in Milwaukee.

In an interview with Becky Mortensen, WUWM-FM executive producer of “Lake Effect,” when she asked Cheng about her top moment at the radio station, Cheng said:

“This was my first full-time public radio producing gig, like ever, so that in itself was very overwhelming. Coming into the station, everyone was always so kind and really care about the station, really care about Milwaukee and our listeners, and they share that genuinely in their stories. I’ve been really lucky to share space with all the reporters and producers who work here. So every day is the top moment here at the station. Definitely loved having my first Kringle here for the first time at Chase Tower!”

Cheng graduated from Denison University in Granville, Ohio.
