Friends or SDPB Welcomes New Staff - Carmen Kock

Carmen Kock has joined the Friends of SDPB staff as Membership Specialist. Carmen manages donation details and member accounts. Carmen grew up in Chancellor and is a graduate of Lennox High School and Northwestern College in St. Paul, Minnesota. Most recently, Carmen was a database analyst/gift processing specialist at Good Samaritan and Sanford Health foundations. “After college, I moved to Burke to teach band,” says Carmen. “At that time, my TV got only one commercial network but both South Dakota and Nebraska Public Television. Those years, especially the 2000 election, are when I became a public broadcasting fan.”

Carmen lives in Sioux Falls and enjoys reading, gardening, teaching piano and traveling to national parks in the western United States. The SD board of Directors for Educational Telecommunication meets Friday, Oct. 29, 1:30 CT. The meeting is scheduled to take place at SDPB’s Sioux Falls Studios, 601 N.
