Lucin has over a decade of journalism, social media management, copywriting, and marketing experience with a trio of Forum Communications companies including Globe, Jamestown Sun, and Grand Forks Herald.
“I’m very excited to have Kari back in Worthington and to be part of our newsroom team,” said Editor Julie Buntjer. “Kari will resume coverage of the education beat for The Globe, as well as coverage of Nobles County’s government and local watersheds.”
Lucin grew up in Clara City and later in Jackson and received his Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Philosophy from Jackson County Central in 1999 and from Augsburg College in 2003. She is the daughter of Martin and Kim Lucin and has a brother, Michael, a sister-in-law Theresa and two nephews, William and Phillip.
Her work experience has included reporting, but also graphic design, book editing, social media management, taking and editing photos, recording and editing videos, blogging, and website design and maintenance.
“I’m really excited to be back at the Globe, and I’m excited to be able to focus on the community,” said Lucin. “Worthington is so unusual because its community is so diverse – new immigrants, old farming families, young children and the elderly, progressive and traditional people from diverse religious and cultural backgrounds.”
Lucin serves on the Jackson County Friends of the Library board of directors, volunteers at Grace Lutheran Church in Spirit Lake, Iowa, and has served at the Jackson Center for the Arts. Her hobbies include playing Dungeons & Dragons, arguing about Doctor Who, playing video games, hanging out with her nephews, and watching as many Star Wars, Star Trek, and superhero films as possible.
