Ohio paper hires McCormick as new business reporter

Grace McCormick

Grace McCormick is the new business reporter at Richland Source in Ohio.

McCormick writes, “There were a few reasons why Richland Source was my top choice during my job search after graduating from Ball State University, but the one I kept coming back to was the relationship between staff members and the community.

“My favorite assignments in college involved interviewing local residents and students who supported each other when their play was canceled, when they were struggling to keep their business open and when they were trying to help international refugees in their own city. These stories were already unfolding and I had the privilege of expanding their reach, showing readers some good that was happening around them.

“What excites me about working for Richland Source is building relationships with people in the community that go beyond singular interviews.”
