Town of Hempstead, N.Y.

A breakdown of the environmental bills being considered in New York. Connecticut students are still behind in reading and math. The Navy has postponed a meeting over a Grumman cleanup in Calverton. And how this summer’s heat could affect our region’s outdoor workers.

Sabrina is host and producer of WSHU’s daily podcast After All Things. She also produces the climate podcast Higher Ground and other long-form news and music programs at the station. Sabrina spent two years as a WSHU fellow, working as a reporter and assisting with production of The Full Story.
