I've been a part of the 93.1 KISS FM family since September of 2001. I am a proud El Pasoan who grew up in Central and graduated from Austin High School before eventually earning a Bachelor's Degree from Arizona State University. I tend to keep things on the lighter side and don't take myself all that seriously. Chances are you'll find me enjoying great food and a drink or two at a local establishment. If you happen to see me out and about please say hi. I'd love to share a laugh or two with you.
