Meet SEJ member Anna Sysling! Anna is a multimedia storyteller and lifelong Michigander. She is currently a producer for Detroit PBS' Great Lakes Now. She is a former producer for “Detroit Today with Stephen Henderson.” She also focuses on solutions-oriented environmental stories as a reporter. Anna has worked as a reporter, anchor, host and producer in both commercial and public media since 2013. Her areas of focus include climate, culture, access and social equity. She graduated from Wayne State University with a degree in Print and Digital Journalism. When she’s not working on the Great Lakes Now initiative, she is probably out rock climbing, writing poetry or geeking out over an heirloom bean variety.
Anna said, "I would absolutely recommend SEJ to colleagues. It can become really easy to stay in a loop interacting and engaging with all of the same outlets and voices. SEJ is a trusted source of curated climate coverage that opens my eyes to so many new people and ways of storytelling that I might have otherwise not discovered." Join us — apply for SEJ membership.
