Bio

Hey,
For some reason those who run this place think you might be interested in me and where I came from.. Here goes..

I grew up in the Fingerlakes. Born and raised in Geneva, New York on the banks of Seneca Lake. It was such a great place to grow up! I graduated from High School a proud member of the class of 1983. I had NO idea what I wanted to be when I grew up, and decided to attend Cayuga Community College in Auburn to try to figure that out.

Thinking I wanted to be on TV , I took Telcom classes. That is where my love for Radio started thanks in large part to the incredible program there.

I was lucky enough to get my first job just a few weeks after graduating from college at a now defunct station in Seneca Falls, New York ..WSFW. It was there that I realized I had a lot to learn still. Then, it was off to my hometown and News at WGVA/WECQ. Wow was that fun and I met some of the best people in the world.

I arrived in Rochester in 1991 partnered with now CBS Radio bigwig Peter King at Goodtime Oldies WKLX..( I am not sure you are supposed to have as much fun as we had there!!)

I have worked in Midtown since 1994 first at WVOR, then WHAM, then back down the hall again, then it was back to WHAM where I remain to this day.

When I am not figuring out what bad (and good) things to tell you about everyday , I am home with my family. The most important thing in my life is my wonderful daughter who makes everyday seem just like Christmas with her laughter and smile.

I am truly blessed!
