I am a Boonville native, and a USI graduate. I'm also a karaoke junkie, fishing fanatic, movie buff, and wrestling enthusiast! For as long as I can remember, I have always said that I wanted to be a part of country music. I am fortunate to have been with WKDQ since 2014, and have loved every bit of it! Music is a passion of mine...everything from Motown to country music. There's an old saying, "when words fail, music speaks," and I believe that to be true. If I am not on air, I am either watching wrestling, kayaking, eating, or sleeping. But if you catch me out and want to talk about music, movies, fishing, or wrestling, I can do that all day with you!
