Jayme Doll is an award-winning journalist who has been with Global News for nearly two decades.  

Currently the anchor for Global News House at 6 and Global News at 11 for Global Calgary and Global Edmonton, she was raised in Peace River, Alberta, and developed her love for broadcasting when she hosted a teen radio program when she was 14 years old.   

A graduate in Communications at the University of Calgary and in Broadcast Journalism at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), she has worked in radio and television newsrooms in Regina, Halifax, Winnipeg, and Calgary. Her work has taken her to Africa, Central and South America, and the U.S.   

Throughout her career she has cast a light on human rights abuses and the plight of the world’s most vulnerable, including victims of sexual violence in war ravaged DRC, human trafficking in Cambodia, and anti LGBTQ laws in Uganda. She has also covered the climate crisis and has shared stories about vulnerable species from mountain gorillas in the DRC, Lemurs in Madagascar and the dwindling Caribou herds in her home province of Alberta.   

Doll has been on the frontlines of many natural disasters such as the 2013 floods in southern Alberta, and the devastating wildfires in Alberta, Northwest Territories and B.C.   

The recipient of the Adrienne Clarkson award for diversity and a national RTDNA, she has been a volunteer trainer with Journalists for Human Rights mentoring journalists abroad.  

When she is not in the field or at the anchor desk on Saturday and Sunday nights, she enjoys the outdoors, travelling and spending time at home in the mountains of Banff National Park with her husband and daughter.
