JAYME DOLL

Born in Edmonton, Jayme Doll grew up in Peace River Alberta.

Jayme began her journalism career working News talk radio in Regina where she covered crime and courts. She then went to CTV to anchor the 11 o'clock news.

A desire to always live near the sea, Jayme moved to Halifax to work for CBC. But the prairies came calling once again and she packed up her belongings and headed to Winnipeg to begin her career with Global News.

Jayme spent a month reporting on sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo...touched by her experience she felt the need to spend more time in Africa. Jayme accepted a position with Journalists for Human Rights working in Kumasi, Ghana. She spent seven months working with local journalists covering human rights issues, and filing stories for Global back home in Canada.

Following six years crisscrossing Canada and Africa she could no longer deny the call of the Rockies. In 2007 she came back home to Alberta to join Global Calgary as weekend anchor and reporter.

When she is not working Jayme is either traveling, dirt biking, skiing, climbing, camping or spending time with her loved ones including Faeden her pooch.
