Who writes the site?
Prairie Village Post is maintained by the husband and wife team of Jay Senter and Julia Westhoff, who live in a PV cape cod with their recent addition, Olivia. Jay has a master’s degree in journalism from KU, and has written for the Kansas City Star, Yahoo! Sports, the Lawrence Journal-World, and KCFreePress.com.
Jay was raised in Prairie Village, and graduated from Shawnee Mission East in 1998.
Julia has a long background in journalism as well, having served as the News Content Editor of the Badger Herald, a 16,000 daily circulation newspaper serving the University of Wisconsin – Madison community. Her writing has appeared in the Lawrence Journal-World, the Pitch, and on Lawrence.com. She primarily writes about food and restaurants for PVPost.com.
Olivia is really cute, but she doesn’t do much writing yet.
