Gretchen Kasperbauer
Marketing ManagerGretchen joined Iowa Public Radio in July of 2019. With a background in mixed marketing from a corporate and agency-perspective, she was excited to jump into the world of public media. Growing up in Minnesota and being a long-time listener of MPR and NPR, it was a natural fit to become an avid listener of IPR when she moved to Ames for college in 2008.
In her spare time, Gretchen loves to be surrounded by friends and family, and her two dogs Tails and Annie. She also loves to attend concerts, be near a lake, travel and pretend she’s an interior designer.
Gretchen has a B.A. in Communications and minor in Journalism from Iowa State University.
