Jimmy Maas
Host and ReporterI am a reporter focusing on business, sports, and odd stuff around Austin. I also can be heard hosting afternoons on KUT and currently, I am serving as interim program director. I grew up in Austin where I studied at its finest institutions. I moved to New York where I worked for some of its biggest media conglomerates. Since joining the KUT News team, I have won awards and received several years of "meets and sometimes exceeds expectations" in employee reviews. You can email him at jmaas@kut.org.
