In 1978, I became licensed by the FCC to professionally broadcast my voice to the masses. That little piece of paper led me down the path of craziness which grew into to a frenzy of overnight stardom and radio fame.

My radio career began at these fine stations, all in California: KSM FM (San Marcos, CA), KVEN-KHAY(Ventura, CA), KBBY (Ventura, CA);KOWAM/KOWFM (Escondido, CA); KMLO (Fallbrook, CA);Y-95 (San Diego, CA) KKOS, KCEO (Carlsbad, CA) The hats I've worn during what I call "The Roller Coaster Years" include: Radio Personality, Copywriter, Music Director, PSA Director, Production Coordinator, Traffic Coordinator, Associate Television Producer, Disc Jockey, Talk Radio Host, News Reporter.
