If you're here, you probably just read my article...so thanks for taking the time to do that! When I'm not writing articles for our group of 4 radio stations, I'm busy writing/producing some of the commercials you hear on the radio. I'm headed into my 23rd year with Townsquare Media! A bit about me, I'm a cheesehead, ("Go Pack Go"!) and a huge Iowa Hawkeye fan! When I'm not at the radio station, you can find me "grillin' & chillin"....betting on sports, losing at poker, eating chicken wings, and enjoying a good craft beer.
