My last live shot. It’s been a pleasure reporting for News 8 and telling your stories in Connecticut. Next week I move onto my next chapter in public relations. Many thanks to my co-workers and everyone in the field who made this experience in news so much fun. I’ll miss it. pic.twitter.com/GcAvrYb0Px
