My radio career began at age 14, and it has been exciting to be part of transforming radio into a digital business that can thrive in a smart and social world.

Growing up in Indianapolis, I listened to several radio stations including WIFE-AM, WNDE-AM, WNAP-FM "The Buzzard", WFMS and WLS-AM in Chicago. I loved radio so much I started a radio station in my bedroom that included turntables, a microphone and a tape recorder. I think my parents thought I was crazy, but I love radio and everything about it! While attending Carmel High School, one of my teammates on the cross country team was on the high school radio station staff and also worked a weekend shift on WIFE radio. That’s where it all started. I went out for the high school radio station staff and made it! I was the WHJE Music Director, Morning Show Host, Play by Play for HS Wrestling (yes, Wrestling!), News Anchor and more... WOW—the rest is history. I love radio, and I love the people in radio.
