The first followed a year-and-a-half internship that concluded in September 2014, while she was studying journalism at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.
Between her two stints at with the company, Wethal interned for The New York Times, served as news editor of UW-Whitewater’s Royal Purple, and launched Kimberly Marie Photography.
Prior to being named news editor of Unified in 2020, Wethal served as a government reporter for the group of four Madison-area community newspapers.
