I'm a born and raised Michigander, and even though my hometown is in the Detroit area, Lansing holds a very special place in my heart. I honed my love of radio at Specs Howard School of Media Arts before kicking off my career as an intern in Detroit in 2011. From there I made my way to Lansing (home sweet home). I live with my high school sweetheart, now husband, and two fur babies — a black cat named Memphis and a dog named Cece. I love playing Dungeons & Dragons, watching movies, baking, reading, going to concerts, and basically anything and everything related to The Office.
