Katie Egan, a former KBTX news anchor, has stepped behind the scenes at one of the Brazos Valley’s most important nonprofits: the Brazos Valley Food Bank.After nearly a decade in broadcasting, Egan said working with the food bank has given her a different way to serve the community. While she is still a storyteller, she said the stories she documents now move at a slower pace. They are not breaking news — not what happened five minutes ago — but stories of community investment and involvement.“News is very in the moment. It’s the day of, it’s what’s happening right now,” Egan said. “The stories that I’m telling at the Brazos Valley Food Bank are today’s stories. It’s about the ongoing challenges of our community, and also just telling the stories of people right here...”Egan said the shift has changed the feel of her work, but not the purpose behind it.“So it’s just a little bit of a different feel to it,” she said. “Instead of that breaking news, it’s really investing into the community — what is happening, and how can we help?”Egan’s career in journalism and communications has taken her through multiple markets, starting in Fargo, North Dakota. She said her time there included covering community stories, breaking news, and winter weather.“The coldest day that we ever experienced while in North Dakota was negative 50 with a wind chill of negative 75,” Egan said.From those freezing temperatures to the humid climate of Texas, Egan said she has found purpose — and built a family — in the Brazos Valley. She married Alex Egan in 2023. The couple bought a home and now have a 10-month-old son, James.Egan said she is excited to continue her work at the Brazos Valley Food Bank and uplift voices in the community.Egan will guest host “The Three” all week, sharing her story and raising awareness about food insecurity in the Brazos Valley.</div></body>
