Maddie Hamilton
Student AssistantMaddie Hamilton was raised in the Sacramento area, where she discovered her love for the visual and performing arts in 2013, prompting her move to Ashland in 2017 to pursue her passions.
While radio is the newest interest she's taken, she may often be found in the darkest corners of the Oregon Center of the Arts working on the technical side of shows, specifically studying stage management, as well as choral music and performance. She is always ready to jump at the opportunity to learn a new aspect of technical work, and has been enjoying practicing her live mixing skills with Geoff on the Jefferson Exchange.
She often loves experimenting with her hair and makeup, and has dyed her hair every color of the rainbow. In the few hours she keeps for herself, Maddie can often be found at home either baking or watching the Great British Baking Show with her roommates, or walking and spending time with her boyfriend and two dogs.
