00:00:00.380 --> 00:00:01.940
My name is Dr. Nicole Cross.

00:00:01.940 --> 00:00:05.680
I am a news anchor, and I'm also the host of In Focus Texas.

00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:07.500
So I anchor your afternoon

00:00:07.500 --> 00:00:09.410
and your evening on Spectrum News One.

00:00:09.410 --> 00:00:11.910
And of course I host In Focus Texas,

00:00:11.910 --> 00:00:14.490
our weekly community affairs program.

00:00:14.490 --> 00:00:16.528
So I want to speak to you about basically

00:00:16.528 --> 00:00:19.670
how I stay connected to my career path

00:00:19.670 --> 00:00:21.070
through the work that I do here.

00:00:21.070 --> 00:00:22.170
It is very easy.

00:00:22.170 --> 00:00:25.090
I desire most of all to connect with people,

00:00:25.090 --> 00:00:29.510
to inform people, and to give people the information

00:00:29.510 --> 00:00:32.300
that they need to make informed decisions.

00:00:32.300 --> 00:00:35.550
And I am able to do that by sharing

00:00:35.550 --> 00:00:37.410
what is occurring in their community

00:00:37.410 --> 00:00:42.410
and sharing deep dives on topics that truly matter to them.

00:00:43.540 --> 00:00:45.490
I absolutely love it.

00:00:45.490 --> 00:00:47.750
And I couldn't imagine being anywhere else

00:00:47.750 --> 00:00:49.853
doing anything else.
