What Did You Want to Be When You Were Little?

I wanted to be a writer – the rare kind that actually gets paid to do it! So I went to journalism school.

Career Highlight

Cracking the mic at WKTU in New York. There’s nothing like being on-air in your home town!

Favorite Thing to Do on the Weekend

You can find me doing anything from taking a weekend trip to Wisconsin to go shooting with friends, having lunch followed by a mani/pedi with girlfriends, setting up our new house or just catching up on sleep!

Have You Ever Won Anything From a Radio Station?

I never have, but I tried and tried! Maybe my lucky day is yet to come. Keep your fingers crossed ... maybe I’ll end up with a million-dollar payoff!

Memorable Radio Moment

My co-host, our producer and I once had to run down 16 flights of stairs when our building was on fire! We only had time to throw in a mix CD. When we finally got out of the building and got our PD on the phone, he said one of us had to go back – “Someone has to go down with the ship!" Our reply: "Haven’t you ever seen Titanic?! The captain goes down with the ship!”
