Born and raised in the Great North, I am an authentic Alaskan kid, from Palmer, in the heart of the Matanuska Valley. I came to Fairbanks for college and forgot to go home. Still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. Besides radio, I work as a gardener in the spring and summer, plus I train dogs for hunting and agility. I do a lot of multi-tasking for NNB, selling radio air time, plus I’m the exclusive transit sales person in our market. I’ve done almost every job in radio, and find that on-air work suits me best. After all, I do get paid to sit in a room and talk to myself while I listen to the best station ever – 95.9, XROCK!!!
