Stephen Graddick

Stephen Graddick IV is not your typical news journalist. He's an acclaimed environmentalist and a recognized national leader in sustainability. Hailing from Charlotte, NC, Stephen earned his Bachelor of Arts in Communications & Journalism from Johnson C. Smith University.

Stephen's unique professional journey transcends the traditional industry path. He's been a communications strategist and spokesperson for leading companies in sustainability, advocating for a modern understanding of environmentalism worldwide. He's also lent his expertise as a Program Director, advising top executives on organizational structures and championing diversity and equity practices. Additionally, Stephen excelled as a Senior Investigator, skillfully navigating legal and financial complexities to help everyday people reclaim what was rightfully theirs. 

Together, these roles all prepared and guided Stephen towards his ultimate passion and purpose – news & storytelling. As a news anchor/reporter, Stephen feels blessed to have the privilege of connecting with people and sharing their stories. He is ecstatic about this new opportunity to meet and serve the DC, Maryland and Virginia communities.
