Stefani Langenegger - host

Stefani grew up on the family farm, which is where her dad first taught her to recognize 'bull'.

She's been putting that to good use as a reporter at CBC Saskatchewan for more than two decades, including many years as Saskatchewan's legislative reporter.

Stefani has degrees in political science and journalism from the University of Regina.

She loves animals, belly laughs and the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Janani Whitfield - producer

Growing up constantly scribbling stories, Janani would eventually turn her love of writing and storytelling into a career with CBC Saskatchewan. Starting off as a journalist, Janani's passion and dedication would soon lead her to becoming Producer of The Morning Edition.

She loves her job because she gets to talk to fascinating strangers and people doing great things locally while getting to know many of the everyday heroes who continue to make our community better.

Outside of work, she calls Regina home with her husband, three children - and one cat with a contempt for all the humans in their home.

Tory Gillis- news editor

Tory Gillis is curious, and she loves a good competition. 

She grew up in Brandon, Man., playing plenty of sports but she was likely better at telling the story of the game afterwards. 

That led her to shadow the local CKX-TV sports reporter on Take Your Kid to Work Day rather than her parents. 

Tory played competitive softball at University of Regina, and interned at CBC Saskatchewan on the way to earning her journalism degree in 2012. 

Since then, she's worked in Regina as a reporter and an associate producer, and has read the news on the weekend, afternoon and now the morning for CBC Saskatchewan.  

Tory lives in Regina with her husband, son, and a spoiled cat named Teemu. 

She continues to play softball for fun despite her increasing age and decreasing running speed.  

She also loves to travel, jog, listen to podcasts, and take in as many "prestige TV shows" as she can. 

Now that she's on the early shift, she's working on sharply increasing her morning caffeine intake, and the volume level on her alarm. She will not turn down a latte anytime before 3 p.m. CST.

Chris Haynes - associate producer/technician

Born and raised in Saskatchewan, Chris has been playing with audio recorders, microphones and mixers ever since elementary school. He holds a degree in Music Production and Engineering from Berklee College of Music in Boston.

Brought up on a steady diet of CBC Radio as a child he's made public broadcasting his career. He's helped produce many documentaries, dramas, concerts and special programs over the past twenty some years.

Samanda Brace - associate producer

After a failed attempt at following in Nancy Drew's footsteps, Samanda decided journalism was as close as she would get to being an amateur sleuth. 

She attended the School of Journalism at the University of Regina, which lead to an internship at CBC Saskatchewan. 

She's been an associate producer on various programs for four years but this night owl landed a permanent spot on The Morning Edition and now has to get up at the crack of dawn most days.

When she's not at work, Samanda likes exploring new cities, singing Twist and Shout at a local karaoke bar, or binge-watching cooking shows.

Joelle Seal - associate producer

Joelle is happily waking up with the early crew on the Morning Edition, bringing the people of her home province all the stories they need to start their day.

Joelle's love of a good story first led her to completing a bachelor's degree in history at the University of Regina. That love of storytelling — combined with a passion for writing and a good conversation -- compelled her to pursue a career in journalism.

She completed a Masters of Journalism at the University of Regina with a focus on reporting on environmental issues in Saskatchewan. She began an internship at CBC during her time at the School of Journalism in 2016 working in various roles, and became a permanent fixture of the Morning Edition team in 2018.
