Ryan Thompson Operations Administrator 970-350-0801

I first hear d KUNC when I was a
student at The University of Northern Colorado desperately trying to get my
‘This American Life’ fix. Little did I know at the time that in just a few years
Ira Glass himself would be suggesting that he and I trade glasses at a KUNC
sponsored lecture in Boulder. I was the envy of my NPR-junkie
friends for weeks afterwards as a result of the ensuing photos.
I joined the team at KUNC in 2008
as the Administrative Assistant, and spent two happy years toiling away
assisting the staff, listeners and members before moving into the Operations
Administrator position in March of 2010. My job falls under a few different
departments here, and if you should call our offices there’s a good chance we’ll
meet. I manage our Facebook and Twitter sites, help out our Corporate Support
department, and try to keep the staff as happy as possible (primarily by making
sarcastic comments during staff meetings). I’m a bit of a catch-all, and that’s
how I like it – that way I never get bored.
My spare time is chiefly dedicated
to updating my Netflix queue and making sure my two cats don’t kill one another,
but I also spend as much vacation time as I’m allowed visiting my family in
north-eastern Connecticut and my partner, Cale, in Estes Park.
