BIO
 So, you want to know a little bit about me, hey?  No?  We'll, you're here anyway so I'll tell you. 

 Contrary to popular belief, I'm not from Canada.  I was born and raised in Michigan and up until my journey  to Illinois three years ago, I had lived in Great Lakes State my entire life.

 
I got into radio at the age of seventeen after several illustrious jobs including dishwasher, line cook and stock boy.  I thought it would be a cool job for my senior year of high school because l could play music and meet girls!
 
The rest, as they say, is history!
 
FAVORITE SONGS/MUSIC:
 
I honestly love all types of music from everything we play on WBNQ and everything in between!
 
HOBBIES:
Macaroni art, playing guitar
 
FAVORITE TV SHOWS:
LOST!

WORDS OF WISDOM:
 
Plan like you will live forever and live like you will die tomorrow
 
 
CELEBRITY LOOK A LIKE
Before:   Jon Bon Jovi
Now: Howie Mandel or the guy who plays Lex on Smallville -damn that male pattern baldness!
