Previously, Macarenko hosted CBC Radio Ones B.C. Almanac where she connected with British Columbians through conversation. Prior to that, Macarenko hosted the award-winning television newscast CBC News Vancouver.  She has twice been nominated for the Gemini Awards in the category of "Best News Anchor" in Canada.

Macarenko's relationship with British Columbia goes far beyond the newsroom.

Born and raised in Prince Rupert, her travels take her around B.C. When not in the host chair, or on the road, she can be found enjoying a good book or sampling the spectacular culinary adventures Vancouver is known for.
