Hello! My name is Lydia Bice and I’m a reporter at Dayton 24/7 Now News in my hometown of Dayton, Ohio. I love telling the stories of those who live in the town I grew up in. I pride myself on impact story telling and not just chasing the one-and-done story. Before switching over to full-time reporting in August of 2023, I was a Digital Content Producer at Dayton 24/7 Now, writing content for our website and pushing out breaking news to our app users and social media followers as soon as it comes into our newsroom. As a Digital Content Producer, I also created engaging social media posts for our station, including TikTok and YouTube videos with tens of thousands of views. During that time I was also our on-air Now Desk reporter bringing the latest local and national stories to our 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. newscasts in a 45 second format.
