Robin has been with Global
BC since January 2004 when she
moved over from sister station Global Edmonton where she co-hosted the Morning
News for four years. She currently anchors the News Hour on weekends at Global BC.
Though originally from British Columbia,
Robin grew up in an “air force” family and lived her life mostly overseas in Germany. Robin
came back to Canada
for her education and graduated from the journalism program at the Southern
Alberta Institute of Technology.
Her first journalism job was in Red
Deer where she worked in various positions, from
shooting and editing to anchoring the news and rolling the prompter.
A lover of languages, Robin is fluent in French and loves story telling,
a quality that makes broadcast journalism a perfect career for her.
Outside of work, Robin manages to keep herself active by running, scuba
diving, sailing and traveling and is a self-described airplane junkie. She even
got to ride in an F-18 a few years ago.
She completed her first half IRONMAN triathlon this June in Oliver,
B.C., and also her first Ride to Conquer Cancer.
Robin lives in Vancouver
and spends her quality time with family and her beloved 6-year-old pug, Doug.
