Born and raised in West Fargo, Bailey is happy to be a voice for the people of the Red River Valley. She first started with Valley News Live as an intern during the summers and Christmas breaks of 2015-2017. After graduating from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a TV Broadcasting degree and a minor in criminology, she joined the VNL team as the crime and safety reporter. Bailey's passion is being a voice for victims of violent crimes and accidents, as she believes they deserve to be known for more than their unfortunate circumstances.
