Hometown    I'm from the MIL-TOWN! If you can't figure that out, I'm from Milwaukee. Yes, I am a Wisconsin native. I lived in Seattle for about a half of a year, and I LOVED IT. We lived downtown...I finally felt like I wasn't a poor college student. But everybody knew I was a Cheesehead and proud of it...hence, why I came back home. 'Cuz I love it here MORE.

Education     Yes, please. Mwahahaha! I did the basics, and then went on to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I majored in Theatre for a couple of years...I would say that I got smart and switched to TV/Radio, but "smart" and "radio" is an oxymoron. I hated how I looked on TV, and I hated kissing butts to major in Public Relations. So I made the switch...and here I am! Must've done something right.

Airshift     Nights 6-11 p.m., and whenever else they trick me into working

What I Like About My Job     Ummm, I get paid to push buttons and be myself. That's pretty rad.

Hobbies/Interests     Though I may not appear to be in shape, I love to work out and go running with my iPod. I also love to travel, preferrably to a place with a beach and a Pina Colada. I'm also a former competitive Irish Dancer...yes, I had the big hair and the cool costume. Pictures upon request. I can teach you a jig...it's okay to ask if you see me out and about. And last but CERTAINLY not least, my son Dillon. He rocks my face off every day.

Favorite Movies     Office Space, Ghostbusters, Newsies, Amadeus (I'm a music freak...I played violin...scary), Boondock Saints, Road to Perdition (can you tell I'm Irish yet??), The Godfather, Best in Show, Ice Age, GO, Napoleon Dynamite, Back to the Future, Notting Hill

Favorite Books     Radio for Dummies...he he he. And any book that can help me raise my son...I'm stumped.

Favorite TV Shows     Six Feet Under...best show EVAH! The Office, The Amazing Race, Ghost Hunters, Big Love, ER, and...don't tell anybody...Project Runway and The Real Housewives of Orange County. Mind-numbing, I know.

Anything Else We Should Know?     Well, I've worked on the air in Milwaukee, Sheboygan, Seattle and...wait for it...right here at 95.9 KISS FM! They must've forgotten what I'm like, because they asked me to come back. I'm all fuzzy inside. I've got a great sense of humor...laughing at yourself is uber-important. Just don't get on my bad side...you won't enjoy the weather there, I promise.
