Go ‘Dores! Watching Vanderbilt football defeat an AP No. 1 ranked team for the first time in Vandy history brought back fond memories. I loved attending the University and being on the Vanderbilt dance team for all four years. We were on the field cheering and dancing throughout every single game from the moment the players first ran out of the tunnel until the last fans left the stadium. #GoDores #VanderbiltUniversity #Vandy #Alum #VanderbiltFootball #Football #Season #Making #History

This is the story of a man who was wrongfully convicted of murder and spent 27 years at the notorious Attica Prison. While behind bars, he built a relationship with his daughter, who was just a baby when he was incarcerated, and became a famous artist. Today marks six years since Valentino Dixon was freed. His story is so complex that in preparation for creating this piece, I read hundreds of pages of court documents, journal entries and articles, and interviewed more people than I could quote. I am thankful for each of them. They all gave me valuable background on this story.

Thank you to Valentino and his daughter, Valentina, for sharing pictures with me to use in this report. #Inspiration #Freedom #NationalRegistryOfExonerations #Family #Artist #Art #Drawings #WesternNewYork #NewYorkState #News #Anchor #Reporter #Journalist #Animator #VideoEditor

Career Update: I am excited to be earning my master’s degree in journalism! Since this industry is rapidly changing and I am a television news anchor and reporter, I want to maintain up-to-the-minute skills. Media forms are merging. Many television news stations host podcasts and share written web articles to accompany on-air reports, while newspapers feature audio and video versions of their written stories. I realize that a journalist should be adept at all forms of media. So far in my master’s program, I have been taught by amazing experts, including four Pulitzer Prize winners, an assistant editor for USA Today, and a lifestyle expert appearing regularly on the TODAY Show! This program is akin to earning an MBA in terms of length and depth. I will keep you all updated on the process. #Update #Graduate #Program #Education #Journalist #Journalism #Anchor #Reporter #News

Olympic Silver Medalist and Media Sensation: The full story is on KatherineChloeCahoon.com

Before even unpacking from her Olympic trip, silver medalist Anita Alvarez spoke with me. In this interview, she opens up about team rituals, stepping onto the podium in Paris, watching her USA artistic swimming team’s underwater moonwalk explode online, the time she almost drowned, and how that setback inspired others to persevere through challenges. Alvarez fell in love with artistic swimming while growing up in Western New York. This is her story.

Thank you to USA Artistic Swimming for providing me with photos. Courtesies: Anita Alvarez, Liz Corman, JH Exposures and James Rokop. #ArtisticSwimming #USAArtisticSwimming #USA #AnitaAlvarez #Paris #SilverMedalist #Medalist #Podium #Olympics #OlympicGames #OlympicGames2024 #Olympics2024 #ParisOlympics2024 #ParisOlympics #Moonwalk

It is the first day of summer! Boats are in the bay, plants are in bloom and outdoor restaurants are packed. #Summer #Activities #Seasons

International News: The full story is on KatherineChloeCahoon.com

This report contains candid images a United Nations ambassador gave me from footage that she swiftly tossed in her handbag as she fled from invading troops seeking her life. An Indonesian army was attacking Timor-Leste, a small Southeast Asian country, while she was overseeing the Timorese’ vote on independence after over 400 years of captivity. On May 20, Timor-Leste celebrates 22 years of sovereignty.

In 2018, I first studied this island nation while preparing to interview young Timor-Leste delegates for a CBS story covering their visit to the United States. That report went viral in their country, and the Timorese invited me to cover last year’s historic parliamentary election between two leaders considered resistance-era heroes. That time, my report trended internationally. This would not have been possible without the help of the Timorese and Debra Lee, the ambassador who risked her life in their vote for independence, and said, “They are the bravest people I’ve worked with.” #TimorLeste #EastTimor #Independence #Freedom #UnitedNations #Journalist #News #Anchor #Reporter #VideoEditor
