ALUMNI CLUB

Jeongyoon Han

Jeongyoon joined us from a stint at NPR in Washington, where she was a producer at Weekend Edition. She has also worked as an English teacher at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, helped produce podcasts for Hong Kong Stories, and worked as a news assistant at WAMC Northeast Public Radio. She's a graduate of Williams College, where she was editor-in-chief of the college newspaper. During her time at Outside/In, she reported on lab mice and on how humans are impacting the sonic environment.

Jessica Hunt

Jessica has been with New Hampshire Public Radio since 2011. She produced The Exchange, NHPR’s daily live call-in show and worked as an on-air host on NHPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered. At Outside/In, Jessica dug into the wonder of opossums, antlers, and the ethics of how we manage dog poop, not to mention her national Edward R. Murrow award-winning episode, “After the Avalanche.”

Erika Janik

Erika Janik fell into radio after volunteering at Wisconsin Public Radio to screen listener calls. She co-founded and was the executive producer of “Wisconsin Life” on Wisconsin Public Radio for seven years before moving to New Hampshire to work at NHPR. Trained as a historian (in colonial American women's history), she’s the author of six books, including Pistols and Petticoats: 175 Years of Lady Detectives in Fact and Fiction, and freelances for a variety of publications. Erika reported an episode on clothing waste for Outside/In, and today, she’s the managing editor of Threshold.

Sam Evans-Brown, founding host

Sam Evans-Brown hosted Outside/In from its pilots in 2015 through the release of Windfall in 2021.

A man of contradictions, he grew up in New Hampshire but thinks Mt Katahdin is the prettiest summit in New England (“Come at me, bro!”).

While covering the environmental beat for NHPR, Sam’s reporting won him several awards, including the Overseas Press Club of America award for best environmental reporting in any medium, a national Edward R. Murrow award, and two regional Murrows as well. He was also a 2013 Steinbrenner Institute Environmental Media Fellow at Carnegie Mellon University.

He studied Politics and Spanish at Bates College, and before reporting was variously employed as a Spanish teacher, farmer, bicycle mechanic, ski coach, research assistant, a wilderness trip leader, and a technical supporter. He would have been crowned National Cross-country Ski Champion of Argentina, but was ineligible because he is not Argentinian.

Frankly he’s a little uncomfortable with all of this.

Daniela Allee

Daniela is an editor in NHPR's newsroom. She leads NHPR's Spanish language news initiative, ¿Qué Hay de Nuevo, New Hampshire? and the station's climate change reporting project, By Degrees. When she came to NHPR as a a Couch Fellow, Daniela contributed a personal essay to Outside/In about learning to swim as an adult.

Maureen McMurray

Maureen started her radio career as an Associate Producer on The Leonard Lopate Show and has been a Supervising Producer on both the Catholic Channel on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio and on Martha Stewart Living Radio. She’s also been a contributing reporter for New Orleans Public Radio and served as Editor and Producer of NPR Intelligence Squared US. Most recently, she edited Biohacked: Family Secrets from Sony Podcasts. She has a BA in Film Studies and History from Wesleyan University.

Jimmy Gutierrez

Jimmy Gutierrez came to us direct from America's Dairyland -- Go Pack, Go! -- where he produced radio and told stories.  He is a 2021 John S. Knight community impact fellow and Director of Audience with Outlier Media.

He's produced radio stories for WUWM, WCAI, & Precious Lives, a podcast examining youth and gun violence, and is also a member of the Fall 2015 Transom Story Workshop.

Before making radio, Jimmy was a Firefighter in Milwaukee, the bar manager for Braise restaurant, and official toilet cleaner for Milwaukee Public Schools. He is the proud companion of his charming cat, Juanito.

Molly Donahue

Molly was a founding member of the Outside/In team and the producing talent behind these great episodes: 

• Episode 38: Daisy Supply Chain

• Episode 46: The Hitchhiker's Guide to WWOOFing

Molly was also the resident pun master on the team, and the heart behind the digital production and social media strategy. She left the team in September of 2017 and joined Gimlet Media as a producer for their show, The Pitch.

Logan M. Shannon

Logan was a founding member of the Outside/In team and the resident photographer, videographer, and cardboard animal mask maker. Her grimy paws were all over our Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts, so chances are, if you got a response from us on social media from November of 2015 to mid-September 2017, it was likely Logan.

Logan left the team in September of 2017 to pursue a career playing Yahtzee professionally. She's been a bank teller, a retail store designer, an art hander, a mountmaker, and a radio producer (to name a few) so chances are she'll be adding a few more job titles to her resume in the years to come.
