Reporter, Hale Center for Journalism

Bowden hails from Nashville, but don’t expect to hear the classic Music City accent in her reporting. Both of her parents graduated with theatre degrees, so she grew up with the neutral, non-regional dialect that broadcast journalists strive to achieve. After graduation earlier this year, Bowden applied for jobs across the country, from Alaska to New Hampshire, but chose to make Kansas City her new home. She is excited to start reporting on and exploring Kansas City, which she said is of a similar size to Nashville.
