FROMAMY: This year has certainly been a season of adaption and resilience. In our front-page story, we feature several local businesses in the service industry that have found safer ways to serve customers. In many cases, these businesses have provided a small sense of normalcy to clients during a dicult time. We have experienced some changes on our team, too. Our editor for the past few years, Taylor Buchanan, moved with her family to the Waco area. We are thankful for everything she contributed to our team and her outstanding editorial coverage. We are pleased to announce that we have a talented, experienced new editor, Claire Ricke, who recently returned to the Austin area. We look forward to introducing her to the community! Amy Leonard Bryant, GENERALMANAGER

FROMCLAIRE: As a seventh-generation Texan, I have a passion for covering local community news. I really enjoy tracking down the important information that every resident needs to know and sharing it in a useful way. I grew up in Central Texas. After starting my career in Austin as a digital producer and on-air reporter, I packed up my little dog and moved to Los Angeles to report on the Southern California market. I am so happy to be back near my hometown covering local news for the community that I love. Claire Ricke, EDITOR
