The moment I got my first boombox in my room I started listening to 96X. I used to steal my sisters No Doubt, Green Day, Alanis Morissette, Smashing Pumpkins,  and Nirvana albums… so the moment I found a station that played all my favorite bands I was hooked (and my sister was pumped I no longer needed to steal her music).  So with that said you know I grew up here in Hampton Roads. I went to Hickory High School and then Old Dominion. I now live in Virginia Beach – living the Shore Drive lifestyle and I love it. The summers you can find me on the bay, fishing, or paddle boarding. I spend a lot of time with Wyatt, my English Bulldog. When you see Wyatt he is almost always in his wheelchair… he suffered a bugled disc in Dec. of 2018 and is now paralyzed from the waist down. So, most of my free time I love to spend with him. I appreciate an assortments of food, music, adventures and fun! I love helping support local businesses and local charities. I also LOVE the fact that I get to spend time on-air with all of you. Make sure to tune in!
