1) What people have impacted your career?
Doug banks, growing up listening to Banks and Company on WGCI basically put in my mind at a very young age that I wanted to do radio.
Rick Party, I called him when he did nights on WGCI in 1996 as a junior in high school. I had been suspended (won’t go into why) and he invited me to come on his show. He was courteous enough to let me introduce a song on his top 9 at 9 countdown “I walked the post” to Montell Jordan’s “I Like” and history was made. He liked it and ended up letting me host the rest of the countdown that night, that eventually led to him inviting me to come on his radio show a few more times that summer to host his top 9 countdown solo as a 16-year-old on WGCI.
