Things that annoy me: People who are oblivious to how their actions affect others |
I've always loved music. When I was little I used to tape my favorite songs off the radio and played them for anyone who would listen. In 1987, I got my first job on the air. Two years later I got my big break at KMEL in San Francisco. I am especially proud of the work we did to bring awareness to the Stop the Violence movement. My favorite part about being on the air is playing dedications. I love to help create memories. My greatest joy is my son. I can't believe how fast he has grown already!!!  My son when he was 2 years old People who have inspired me... Rev. Cecil Williams by his work in the community and his ability to bring people together. My high school drama teacher, Dave Motroni who gave me a safe place to make mistakes. Trivial facts about my high school days... *I knew all of the words to "Roxanne , Roxanne" *I saw Purple Rain at least once a week while it was in the theaters *I was voted Most Dramatic in my senior class (I'm still wishing for that Academy/Tony award any day now...) Musical Quote: "Making love and music's the only things worth fighting 4" Prince |
