Lisa Baumann

I am the local editor of the Woodinville and Redmond Patch sites and a recent transplant to Washington from Minnesota. Before moving, I was the local editor for Shakopee Patch near Minneapolis and before that, I worked for Forum Communications as editor of the weekly Pine Journal newspaper in Cloquet and as a general assignment reporter at the daily Duluth News Tribune.
Fun fact: While in Cloquet, my team and I won a Minnesota Newspaper Association award for leadership related to the 50th anniversary of the only Frank Lloyd Wright-designed gas station in the whole wide world. Back in the day, I ran away to photo school in Missoula, MT and worked as a reporter/photographer at the Ravalli Republic newspaper, where I loved covering wildland fires. I have a degree in Journalism from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN. Mostly, I like to be outside, visiting new places, riding my road bike or photographing something.
