That's radio for ya!1. What was your last non-industry job?
I was Chuck E. Cheese...SERIOUSLY!
2. Why radio?
No matter where the listener is, car, home, work and play, radio allows you to become one with the listener. I get to give a part of me and get to receive apart of them, there's no other job in this world that allows you to get this close and personal with such a diverse people.
3. Whats the first thing you do when you walk into the office in the morning?
I thank God for allowing me to continue doing what I love...radio.
4. What animal would best describe you as a person and why?
A wildabear.... and that's all I'm saying.
5. Like many stations today, KWWV isn't staffed like stations were when you got started in the business. How do you adapt to the feverish multi-tasking?
My motto...want it, get it, gett'er done!
6. Where do you see yourself in five years?
I can see myself programming my own station from home. That's all i know how to do.

8. San Luis Obispo is different from Fresno in what way?
Are you for real? (Fresno, you know I love you.)
9. What was the highlight of your senior prom?
Her name was Nicole.
10. If you were to leave radio today and you could choose any other occupation, what would it be?
I'd be a community organizer, which would allow me to work with communities and change peoples lives.
Bonus Questions
A shift in the Earth's gravitational field adds three hours to every day. What would you do with those extra three hours?
