Along the way\, he taught graduate students from the Georgian Institute of Public Affairs in Baku\, Azerbaijan where\, as a Fulbright Senior Specialist\, he explored political unrest and the cultural rise of the web. He taught for two months in Nanning\, China. \nRiski documented five national presidential conventions from both sides of the aisles. The first was as a guest of CSPAN. Later he gained media credentials thanks to KONP Radio and the generous support of the PC Foundation. \nHe worked as a reporter and photographer in central Ohio and Washington at the Peninsula Daily News\, beside freelancing. He earned a bachelor’s in natural resources from Ohio State University and a master’s in journalism from the University of Memphis. \nRiski is married to Cheryl Baumann\, a salmon restoration advocate and the father of Alden\, a surveyor and musician. They all serve at the pleasure of Clooney\, their most curious newshound. \n– \nABOUT THE OLYMPIC PENINSULA JOURNALISM FUND \nThe Olympic Peninsula Journalism Fund is a vital initiative aimed at supporting local journalism.
