Adam Small

Adam Small has been with KSL NewsRadio since September 2020. He started out anchoring weekend and nighttime newscasts before becoming a reporter for Utah’s Morning News in the fall of 2022. Since then, he has covered a wide array of stories, from floods to fires, major crimes, a presidential visit and even the earthly arrival of asteroid material roughly as old as our solar system.

 

Adam also frequently covers stories about immigration, as well as Utah’s critical water resources like Great Salt Lake and Lake Powell.

 

Before his time with KSL, Adam attended BYU-Idaho from 2016 to 2020, where he received his bachelor’s degree in communication. That’s also where he spoke his first words behind a broadcast microphone. Adam worked at BYU-Idaho Radio during his senior year in a variety of roles, including producer, news anchor and host of the Weekdays program.

 

Adam was born and raised in Maine before he decided to set out west at age 18 to serve a two-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Los Angeles, California in 2014.

 

When he’s not in the newsroom, Adam is likely spending time with his daughter, Olivia. They love to take trips to the park, aquarium, and the zoo. They also love to just relax at home and watch her favorite TV show Cocomelon.

 

Adam was a three-sport athlete in high school and today, he still lifts weights and stays active as much as he can. Adam loves watching football, baseball, basketball, hockey, and soccer. He is also the biggest fan of the Detroit Lions, Tigers and Pistons you’ll ever meet. On college gamedays, Adam cheers for the University of Utah.
