How it all started (radio)

2008 as an intern right here at Capitol Media Group!  I learned a ton in the Springfield market, and love what I do.

How it’s going

Fantastic!  I’ve got a great gig, a great family, and a great life.  No complaints (ok I’m sure I could find something to complain about, but who wants to hear that?)!

My favorite local hobby

Walking my big golden doodle, Lucy, and watching my son’s basketball games

My favorite local event

Illinois State Fair

My family My husband, Bryan, my son, Bennett, and my dog Lucy and cat Gershwin

Where I came from

I grew up super close by in Jacksonville, Illinois

My hidden talent or claim to fame

I’m double jointed…  I think.
