Brandon Tucker

I have been a journalist since 2013, with much of my career spent covering sports and entertainment stories in Alberta. I moved to Maple Ridge in 2019 and got the opportunity to work close to home when I joined the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows News in 2022. I enjoy shining a light on interesting people who are doing interesting things, and diving head-first into stories that have largely gone untold.
