Monday – Saturday: 3p – 7p
After graduating from Columbus High School, I spent several years serving in the U.S. Navy. After the military, I came home and went to Columbus College, yes now CSU, and graduated with a 2-year degree in Criminal Justice. During my last quarter at Columbus College, I was hired as a remote setup person at Kissin’ 99.3 in 1996, and thought this radio thing is pretty so cool! Fast forward to the present, and I’ve been on the air now for nearly 27 years, all but 4 of those with Kissin’ 99.3!
I’m currently enrolled at Mississippi State studying to become a Meteorologist, something I’ve always wanted to accomplish. In the meantime, you can catch me from time to time on WRBL TV-3 as a Weather Forecaster. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, who I married 20 years after high school. I have a 23 year old daughter, a 12 year old son, and 2 dogs, Charlie and June.
When I’m not working, my weekends are normally spent watching my son play travel ball. During the Summer, I’m the Public Address Announcer for the Columbus Chatt-A-Hoots baseball team at Historic Golden Park. And come fall, you can find me behind the microphone at Central Red Devil football games. So, with radio, school, working as a PA Announcer, freelance work at WRBL as a Weather Forecaster, and family, I stay pretty busy!
