Alex Gretgrix

After three years of completing a journalism degree in the big smoke, I knew it was time to go back to my roots and move back to the country. In early March this year, I was given an amazing opportunity to start my cadetship at the Riv. Since then I've managed Campaspe News in Rochester and am now the entertainment and education reporter in Echuca. It's been a crazy and great ride, but I look forward to seeing what the future brings.
