Harper Robinson originally hails from the Hoosier State and graduated with her Bachelor's Degree from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. (Chirp, chirp!)
When she isn't nose-deep in her story for the day, you can find her at Front Beach with her partner, Tyler, and her two dogs (the loves of her life), Storm and Buddy. Harper is a huge music-lover and never skips an opportunity to try out a new restaurant.
This is Harper's first time living outside of Indiana and she couldn't be happier to continue her career in news on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and in the sunshine! Harper wants to thank her dad, Jim, her mom, Lori, and her brother, Hayden, for always supporting her and believing that she can do anything she puts her mind to.
