I'm a media-addicted Mainer, Millennial, and social media geek with a radio show! It's always exciting to be on the air here in New England, and getting to connect with listeners from all over our area is a blast every single day. I grew up in Biddeford, and I've worked in broadcasting all over Maine: Portland, Augusta, Bangor and even way up north in the County. When I'm not on the air, I'm making Mainahs laugh at Maine Memes, and I'm also available for booking as a Maine wedding & event DJ. Follow me on Facebook, on Instagram and Twitter, and catch me on air weekdays from 10am-2pm on Q97.9 in Maine, and always online on the Q97.9 App!
