I grew up in Syracuse, but as soon as I moved here to start school at Ithaca College, I knew this was the town for me. This community was incredibly welcoming and fun, and that’s why I’m so honored to be sharing all the best country music with the fine folks of Tompkins County.  

Growing up, I was in the high school marching band, played guitar, bass, and started countless failed garage bands. Anyone in my life will tell you I never shut up about music, it’s all I talk about. That’s why being a DJ is the perfect job for me! I really believe adding context to your favorite songs makes them even better, so I’m constantly looking for fun facts and tidbits about musicians to share. If you ever need someone to help you at a trivia night, you know what friend-to-phone during the music round!

In addition to being an enormous music fan I’m an obsessive movie watcher. Most nights after my on-air shift, you can catch me at the Regal or Cinemapolis checking out the new releases. In my downtime, I also love to embroider, create wooden miniatures, and play my guitar.

Back In my hometown of Liverpool (the one in Syracuse, not The Beatles one) I have a huge extended family, including my older brother and our two dogs, Sandy and Fred, who I’m sure I’ll talk about on the show. Thanks so much for listening, I’m always glad to be a part of your day!
