I’ve been working in radio for more than 15 years. My career began as a part-time on-air personality and board operator for a station in Longview, Texas in 2001. I continued to work part-time while studying journalism and photography at Kilgore College. Upon graduation, I got my first full-time gig at a classic country station in Tyler where I worked mid-days. Since then I’ve worked for a number of stations in Texas. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends, family and my two cats, Georgie and Tammy. I also love art and photography, enjoy listening to audiobooks, watching movies and volunteering in my community. Go ahead and like me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter, I’m always updating my status!
