Rebecca Ryan CollettGrowing up in Summerville, reporting the news in Charleston has been Rebecca’s dream since she was a little

girl. She got her start at Dubose Middle School anchoring the morning school news at 12-years-old.

Since then she's taken on the role leading the team's

investigations unit. Rebecca believes news is three things: something you can use; something you should know; and something you’ll be talking about. In her free time, Rebecca enjoys spending time with her family,

which will include a second son in May.
