Caden Meines
TV6 Multimedia Journalist (MMJ)
Caden graduated from Northern Michigan University in December 2022 with a Bachelor’s degree in Multimedia Production and a minor in Management.
While initially intending to pursue a career in advertising, Caden joined WNMU-TV’s Public Eye News and found an interest in journalism and reporting the news. He started working behind the scenes but eventually became an anchor on Public Eye News. Caden also helped on getting more people involved in journalism and the news and helped set up a Q&A with a local reporter.
While originally from Hudsonville, Michigan and having never seen anything pass the Mackinac Bridge, he came to Marquette in 2019 and grew to love the U.P. In his free time, Caden enjoys working out, playing/reviewing video games, and hanging out with friends. While having been a videographer for Upper Michigan Today and the TV6 Morning News Team from August 2021 until January 2023, Caden is excited to continue being a part of the TV6 Team as an MMJ, providing quality content for those in the U.P.
