She graduated from Michigan State University in May of 2020 with a degree in English and Film Studies. While attending school away from Marquette, Tia realized her love of the beautiful outdoors and moved back to her hometown shortly after graduation.
When she's not curled up on the couch with her cats and a book or movie, you can find her cooking Italian cuisine or simply ordering food from a local restaurant.
Tia has been with TV6 since January 2021 and looks forward to connecting with people all across the Upper Peninsula.
