Demetra Ganias is a public speaking coach and media trainer based in Greenwich, CT. She brings a dozen years of experience in bustling newsroom to Ganias Media Lab. From local markets to cable news, the most impactful lesson she learned is that our words form our reputation.

After earning her journalism degree from Boston University’s College of Communication, she launched her career as a news writer in Boston at WHDH, the NBC affiliate.

Soon, she made the leap to New York City, accepting a coveted position as an NBC Page.  She worked stints as a production assistant at the New York Stock Exchange for CNBC’s Business Center, and Saturday Night Live during Will Ferrell’s final season on the show. Yet, Demetra was drawn back into news, this time writing for a national audience as Associate Producer at cable news outlet MSNBC.

Realizing her passion for broadcasting, she stepped out in front of the camera. Her first on-air break came as morning anchor for the joint ABC/NBC affiliates WIVT/WBGH in Binghamton, New York, where she was quickly promoted to main anchor.

Demetra later jumped to Albany, reporting and anchoring for ABC affiliate WTEN.  She covered politics extensively, spending most of her time at the State Capitol, interviewing lawmakers and breaking down complicated issues for viewers at home.

This stellar foundation launched Demetra back to New York City, reporting in the nation’s top market for CBS affiliate WCBS, connecting her with the incomparable people and places of the five boroughs.
