Seattle ke basindah aur mashhoor traffic reporter, Adam Gehrke, ne October 18, 2024 ko KNKX 88.5 par apna aakhri traffic report diya, is tarah apne do dashakon se zyada ke safar ka samapan kiya. KNKX Morning Edition ki host, Kirsten Kendrick, ke saath unki lambe samay se chal rahi sahyog ki yeh antim kadi thi. Apne vidayi samay mein, Adam ne KNKX ke saath apne sambandh aur apne naye kadam ke baare mein charcha ki.
Adam ka KNKX ke saath sambandh unke naujawani ke dino se shuru hua, jab ve apni maa ke saath school jaate waqt 88.5 sunte the. Unhone bataya, “Jab mujhe 88.5 par hone ka mauka mila, to yeh mere liye sapne ke sach hone jaisa tha.” Unhone apna safar ‘All Things Considered’ ke saath shuru kiya aur baad mein subah ke show mein shift ho gaye. Seattle mein 26 saalon tak traffic report karte hue, Adam ne kai yaadgaar ghatnaon ka zikr kiya, jaise ki Ship Canal bridge par ek vyakti ka power tower par chadh kar aag ugalna, ya phir ek truck ka bees (madhumakkhi) se bhar jaana.
Apne career ke dauran, Adam ne sirf traffic reporting tak hi seemit nahi rakha, balki radio engineering aur cybersecurity mein bhi apni ruchi dikhayi. Unhone bataya ki ve ab apne cybersecurity ke gyaan ko local nonprofits ke saath kaam karte hue istemal karenge, taaki unki suraksha sudhari ja sake.
Aaj, Adam apne naye safar par hain, jahan ve cybersecurity ke kshetra mein apne gyaan aur anubhav ka upyog kar rahe hain. Seattle mein apne ghar se, ve local nonprofits ki madad karte hue unki digital suraksha ko majboot bana rahe hain. Is naye kshetra mein kadam rakhte hue bhi, Adam apne purane shauq, jaise ki purani nao ko restore karna, tube amplifiers banana, aur sangeet rachna, ko bhi jari rakhe hue hain. Unka maanna hai ki naye challenges ko sweekar karte hue bhi, apne shauq aur ruchi ko jeevit rakhna bahut zaroori hai.
Seattle ke is “Renaissance Man” ka safar hamesha se hi vivid aur prerak raha hai. Apne naye karyakshetra mein bhi, Adam apne anubhav aur gyaan ka upyog karte hue samuday ki seva kar rahe hain, aur apne shauqon ke madhyam se jeevan ka anand le rahe hain.
