I have been in radio since 1982. Lots of formats, lots of stations. Through the years, I was lucky enough to have worked at over 20 different radio stations in 15 different cities and 5 different states. It has been a fun ride and I hope it doesn't end anytime soon. US 103.1 is a great radio station to "work" at. "Work" is a relative term. It's not really work, its playing the music I listen to on my own. I'm also the guy lucky enough to fill in for Carl, Jeremy and Amie when they take well deserved time off. Working with Dale is a bonus as well. Luckily, my real job of working for Hewlett Packard allows the freedom to do so. Keep on rockin' and PLEASE keep on listening!
