What Got You Started:
I used to always play with my phonograph and introduce songs when I was seven or eight years old. My mom once told me that if I didn't get into radio she'd be disappointed. Then when I went to college, after the pell grant beer money ran out I had to get a job, so I took a radio job at KGIM 1420...the rest is history...
