WNAX Drivetime

It may have taken me 17 years to get here, but I am finally getting paid to do something I love. How many kids growing up get to be what they wanted to be, not many or we would have many more firefighters and astronauts.

I was born in Platte, South Dakota, and other than a few years in Sioux Falls, spent most of my childhood there...causing trouble.

Through a series of mishaps(?) I started my broadcasting career in television at KOKH/KOCB Fox and the WB in Oklahoma City, OK.

After I had enough of great barbecue, I came home to SD and worked at KDLT, and KELO TV in Sioux Falls.

OK now to radio, I began as News Director for KYNT/KK93 in Yankton, and in February 2007 made the move to WNAX.

My wife Sandi and I have been married for 3 years and have a rascally toddler running around.

By the way the picture is Erin and I, not my wife.
