I have none of these things, so radio it is!

Born in Portland and raised in Biddeford, I’ve spent the last 25 plus years on your radio. Never having to grow up and doing what I love more than anything in the world.

An original member of the very first WPOR Morning Crew with Jon Shannon for 10 years (from 2001 to 2011), I’ve had a couple detours to other local stations and a stint on the air in the Tampa Bay (FL) area before finding my way back home to WPOR in Sept. of 2017.

I have the world’s most amazing, understanding wife (Meghan) and two beautiful young children (Jack and Lucas). When not on your radio, I spend my days stressed out trying to figure out how I’m going to pick one kid up at soccer practice and the other at daycare across town at the exact same time.

The struggle is VERY real and I wouldn’t change a second of it!
