Luke Moravec

Northland Morning Host

Luke Moravec moved to Duluth to attend The College of St. Scholastica in 1999 and never left. After graduation, he stuck around CSS as the Coordinator of Student Activities for over eight years. Prior to his work at the North, Luke worked as an elementary after-school coordinator, the arts and cultural events coordinator at the Nordic Center of Duluth, and at Solve Escape Rooms where he hosted, built and designed games.

Beyond escape rooms, Luke’s creative endeavors are many. He writes roughly a dozen plays annually for the Duluth playhouse’s theater education program and has authored ten novels for young readers over the past 15 years – most of them unpublished. It’s not unusual to find Luke on a stage somewhere, whether the product is acting, music, or reading trivia questions.

When there’s no snow on the ground, Luke is frequently on his bike or in the lake. When the snow is flying, Luke is reading, watching Scooby-Doo, and solving the Rubik’s cube as fast he can... 24 seconds is his record.
