I got my start in radio way back in 1995 while working for an oldies radio station. After working at a couple stations along my rock journey which included Wings 103/Radio X in Lapeer, I ended up at Banana 101.5 in 2001. If you know me, you know that I’m an extremely laid back person that loves to party and go to concerts. I have a son that I love to death, he is my world 100%. I love to bowl, play video games, scuba dive, and hang with my friends. I used to sing (terribly) in a band and performed at the Capitol Theatre in Flint in the early 90s and I appeared on ABC's Wife Swap with my ex-wife and family in 2007. I grew up in Imlay City but currently live in Grand Blanc and I have a giant Great Dane named Hippo.
