Born and raised in Metro Detroit, Adam's journalism career has taken him across the Midwest. He and his wife settled in Minnesota in the fall of 2021.
Before that, Adam graduated from the University of Missouri (M-I-Z!) in 2018 - and got his start in television working for CBS in Madison, Wis. While in Wisconsin, he married his college sweetheart, who worked against him at a competing news station in town.
Since joining the WCCO team in December 2021, Adam has worked to immerse himself in all of the things that make the Twin Cities so special. He and his wife have also welcomed two children and a dog into their home since then!
When not working, Adam is active in his church, loves making new memories with his young family, and enjoys watching Detroit sports teams like the Lions and Tigers.
