Heather joined 2 On Your Side in July 2014 and couldn't be happier to work in Buffalo. After all, this is home for her.
Heather grew up in Hamburg and is a proud Hamburg High School alumna. She only moved away for four years in college. Even then, Heather was never too far from home.
She graduated from Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in 2014 with a degree in Broadcast and Digital Journalism.
While at Syracuse, she worked as the sports director of CitrusTV and as the bureau chief of the ESPNU Campus Connection group. As if that wasn't enough, Heather also worked on the sports staff at WAER Radio. She covered events such as the Men's Lacrosse National Championship game, Men's Basketball Final Four and the Pinstripe Bowl.
During her summers home from school, Heather interned with the Buffalo Bisons and 2 On Your Side.
Heather is always looking for the stories about teams and individual athletes that make sports special. If you have any story ideas please contact her at heather.prusak@wgrz.com
