Hanging out with you during the workday, 10a-3p
Let's be friends!
Born in upstate NY, went to school there for broadcasting, moved to Wilmington 8 years ago with the intention of going to Graduate School but kind of got sucked into this radio world and haven't looked back. If you ask my parents, this profession really isn’t a surprise. I've always been known to talk a bit much...I think every progress report I got made mention of "Jackie talks too much in class" and "Jackie needs to learn her multiplication tables" never really got the hang of those! I was raised by two of the most genuinely amazing people I've ever known -- and I have them to thank for my sarcastic nature! I really don't know what kind of person I would be without my parents, not trying to get sappy here, but they've taught me by example. Oh, and I have an older brother who was as calm as I was hyper growing up. He would lay on the floor drawing (now he's a tattoo artist, and a very successful one at that!) and I would run in circles around him. Recently I got MARRIED to the most fantastic man I've ever known! We were so fortunate to have the support & love of our family & friends making it an unforgettable & amazing day. Here's a little peak into the day:
I use Facebook, Twitter & Pinterest A LOT, click the links above & follow along in the fun!
So...why radio? Easy. I love music. Any kind of music. It's been a part of me for as long as I can remember. I listen to music all day and most of the night...I like everything from big band/swing to rock, rap to country, indie to 80’s and everything in between. I'm pretty out there so it makes sense that my musical taste would be too!
I play a lot of volleyball -- I've always been more into sports than shopping and girlie stuff. I used to beg my parents to take me to sporting events growing up and for my 9th birthday I went to see the WWF --, I LOVE music, I have bizarre and slightly irrational fears (for example, I hate feet. They freak me out.), I love flowers, drink vodka, I've been known to be a little clumsy (haha, a little?!?!) and I have a minor obsession with mullets, not the fish, the 80's hairstyle. Love 'em!
Have some fun during the day playing this funny Saved By The Bell You Tube Game!
