The sweetest story! Part of what I get to do in my new role with @kpnorcal is highlighting the incredible stories happening inside of our medical centers, like baby Nyla and the NICU care team that provided specialized care for her seven month stay in the NICU. Worth a watch!.
Baby Nyla, born three months premature and weighing less than a pound, reunited with the medical team who cared for her at Kaiser Permanente's NICU in San Francisco in an emotional event Thursday. Thank you @bett_yu at @ktvu for this powerful story!

That’s a wrap! 🎤. Feeling so overwhelmed by all the love on my last day at @abc7newsbayarea today and absolutely exhausted. Plus, what’s a little breaking NEW POPE news to cap off my final hours in news? 😅. More thoughts on this wild journey to come. Until then, thank you. 🫶🏼
