My first job in radio was on WBLM back in the '80s! After landing in Portland Maine from Boise Idaho, I fell in love with Maine and have been doing morning radio for three decades. I've been involved in dozens of charities over the years always wanting to give back to the people who have kept me employed all these many years - the listeners. I'm passionate about helping people and making them laugh on the way to work. Laughter and having fun is truly the only way to start the day.
