Although I am originally a Connecticut native, I began my career as an on-air personality at rock radio station WHCN-FM in Hartford and then worked at legendary WBCN-FM in Boston. While at WBCN, I won three Boston Achievement in Radio Awards and was the Executive Producer of New England Patriots Radio Network. I moved to California in 1999 and worked for Y107 in Los Angeles where I was the OM for KXFX and KVRV in Northern California. I also programmed stations in Harrisburg and on Long Island. In 2005, I became Program Director of WKBU-FM in New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina forced me to move back to Los Angeles where I became the Brand Manager for Slacker, wrote comedy web shows for My Damn Channel and was a Music Supervisor for films with Grindstone Entertainment.
