Paul Holden

Paul Holden is from Littleton, Colorado, and is a producer for Seattle's Morning News after wearing a few hats for KIRO Newsradio. He has ran the boards, sat in the editor's chair at the news desk and anchored live newscasts. He has over five years of on-air and radio experience, getting his start as the morning DJ for WXTQ in Athens, Ohio, after graduating from Ohio University in 2013. Paul loves baseball, video games and spending time outside. He's a passionate fan of Colorado sports, especially the Colorado Rockies. Just don't ask him about Russell Wilson. If there's a pop culture convention downtown, Paul is probably there too. Paul is always looking for the next cool thing heading to Seattle, as each week he brings a rundown of things to do on the weekends. So shoot him an email if you ever know of something cool going on!
