I was born in the southern U.S. and raised by a 21 year Marine Corps Vietnam Vet and his hard working, successful, Tennessee born bride. They set the bar pretty high for their three kids...so I decided to just walk under it and go into radio at age 16. After years of "town to town, up and down the dial", I made my way to Billings in 2005. That turned out to be the best decision I ever made. It lead to a great job, and the love of my life, my daughter, Eliana. I'm happy to be raising her in a place with a great mix of conservative family values and progressive ideas about inclusion and embracing the differences in people (provided they are not too liberal or from California).

Drive Thru Groceries Coming To Billings
With brick and mortar stores trying to compete with the convenience of online shopping, I think things like this are a good move. I like the option to do all my shopping and paying online, while still getting the satisfaction of instant gratification and shopping local.
Crazy Chili Guy Calls Making Threats
This blog is dedicated to the anonymous caller who called Kaitlyn yesterday during her midday show explaining how he was going to destroy us at the chili cook off this month. I know I've perhaps been a little over enthusiastic about the product I'm bringing to the party, but in all fairnes…
Newsflash: Diabetes Sucks
Diabetes (both types) is pretty common on both sides of my family. My grandmother was type 1 and some of my earliest memories are of my grandfather giving her an insulin shot as well as being told not to steal the small candy bar out of her purse because it was for emergencies. For those who haven…
My Pick For Celebrity President
