1. How would you describe your first radio gig?
ALL FUN! It was a bunch of 20-year olds running a radio station, what could go wrong?
2. What led you to a career in radio?
It was completely by accident! I was working as a bartender at a restaurant in St. Petersburg and one of my friends who was a waitress at the time got a job at the new station intown, WLLD and asked if I wanted to come hang out with her at the station since it was a weekend overnight shift. The show was an EDM Mix show Fridays 1a-5a. Week after week I went with her, I started help produce the show, the show grew in popularity, so they added Saturday nights as well.
