I taught Morgan in my Broadcast Performance class at BYU-Idaho in 2012 and worked with her at KIDK/KIFI from 2013 to 2015 and in both cases she was a delight to work with. Morgan is an accomplished producer who is outstanding in both ability and attitude. As a producer she met deadlines and took charge of the newscast. She was easy to work with and got along well with co-workers. I do not hesitate to give her me whole-hearted recommendation.

Morgan was my producer when I anchored at KIDK. She started out as an intern at the station and we immediately saw her talents and hired her on as a producer. She is the kind of producer who makes an anchor and reporter feel comfortable to have her at the helm of the show and in the booth during a live show. Morgan has extraordinary news judgement, is accurate and sharp in her news writing and producing capabilities. She is a solid journalist who knew the region inside out and brought tremendous insight into editorial meetings everyday. She is a real team player and has one of the best attitudes and in this business that alone makes a big difference. Morgan would be an asset to any station. I would highly recommend her without reservation.
