Hello there! I'm Bryanna Hampton, your new local editor for Town and Country-Manchester Patch. I've been an editor with Patch for about a year now, covering Ballwin-Ellisville, Webster Groves and Kirkwood.

If you're wondering where Gabrielle is, don't worry -- she's helping out with Patch in a new role, contributing to several St. Louis sites, so you'll see her face here still! 

Before I share about me, I want to know about you and what Town and Country and Manchester are all about. What's important to you? What things do I HAVE to do? My familiarity with the area is growing and I want to make sure I don't miss anything!

All right -- here's a quick overview of yours truly:

  • I graduated from Missouri Baptist University with degrees in communications and public relations. 
  • There, I served as the managing editor of our student online news source, Timeline Online, and anchored/produced/edited for the weekly student broadcast, "Timeline."
  • I had a great time learning and reporting in New York City a few summers ago during the World Journalism Institute's convergence media course. I miss a lot about that exciting city, especially the cityscape and Mr. Softee ice cream.
  • Two words: Cardinals baseball.
  • During my "off" time, I shoot photos for fun, draw, read and help out at my church. Of course, I love to spend time with family and friends and, admittedly, we all do a lot of eating good food.
  • Favorite TV shows: "New Girl," "The Big Bang Theory," "The Office" (the Steve Carell years), "Seinfeld," "House"
  • Want to get on my good side? Coffee. Yup.
Hopefully we'll meet as I'm out and about in the area and at different meetings and events, but feel free to introduce yourself here! Join our Patch community if you haven't already and let me know what's up -- from news tips to quirky photos to organization announcements to road projects, I want to know and make sure I'm covering what matters to you.

If you ever have any questions or just want to find out more about Patch, email me at bryanna.hampton@patch.com. As always, you can keep up with Patch in a few handy ways:Thanks! And don't forget to give me your tips to being a local in Town and Country and Manchester in the Comments section!- Bryanna
