My Voice Experience

Currently, I am employed with the Mississippi Department fo Public Saftey/Highway Saftey Patrol as an Emergency Telecommunications Officer. However, I have always had a passion for radio. I began my radio career at the tender age of 15, doing commercials for WORV/WJMG Radio in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

I continued to work at 92.1 WJMG Radio until 1993. From 1990-1993, I had the city's Number # 1 weekend radio show. The Love Light in Flight was a market favorite. I attended Morris Brown College, and marched in the Wolverine Band. If you seen the motion picture "Drumline" starring Nick Cannon...I was in the Band.

After returning to Hattiesburg, I started working back at WJMG Radio. I quickly regained the number one spot, and held it consistently for the next ten years. I have always wanted to do voice overs for radio stations, motion picture trailers, and PSA's sponsored by the Ad Council.
