I really got interested in radio when I was in 8th grade and we had to pick a career that we liked and follow around someone in that field for a day.  I got to come in and hang out with James and the previous co-host, Tracy, for the Early Morning Show and they liked me so much they asked me to come back anytime. I came in as often as I could. Only being in 8th grade, I didn't have a car and would have to bum rides from relatives working in Rochester every time I wanted to go to the station.  "A huge thanks to my aunt Deb for that".  Years passed and when the new morning girl (Cori) was the DJ at my junior prom we talked and she asked if I might want to intern during the summer. Of course I said yes and after a wonderful summer of craziness, I got hired as a part-time weekend jock.  After a while things changed at work and I got offered the overnight position and that's where I am today.

Working overnights can be pretty cool. I get more calls then one might think, usually from people just leaving the bars.  If there's no school in the morning, then I get tons of calls from students staying up late partying the night away.  As the morning moves on, I get to talk more with people getting up to start their day and to my fellow overnighters who are going home to go to bed.

I'm in the studio as much as possible, but when I'm not on the air I am doing a lot of things behind the scenes.   Since I'm the overnight radio jock, I'm the golden girl for our sales staff.  Any last minute commercials get thrown my way.  I do a lot of the prep work for the KROC Early Morning Show and for the other 3 morning shows that are in our building.  Since there are just a few of us working during the overnights we get to blast the radio and pretty much party while we work.
