Hi! My name is Hiral Patel, and I am a professional entertainment enthusiast who is knowledgeable in anything pop culture, trends, and current events. I have 3+ years of experience in news and entertainment for radio and TV.

I gained my FIRST hands-on experience while in college (2016-2020), working for the campus newspaper and radio station, WMSC, where I held multiple positions: news reporter, assistant news director, news director, program director, and station manager. From there, I secured internships at CBS and MSNBC.

After so many exciting opportunities, I was able to open doors for myself and keep pushing toward success—even when things got tough. I am grateful to have worked at 1010WINS and WPIX-TV, where I acquired a diverse set of skills, including interviewing politicians and celebrities, booking, content creation, problem-solving, storytelling, creative thinking, and being a self-starter.

I hope to keep learning, growing, and challenging myself in the broadcasting industry as it continuously evolves.

Fun Fact: I enjoy playing board games, dancing, finding the best ramen spot in the Big Apple, and taking acting classes in my spare time.
