I started working at KIX 105.7 and Townsquare Media as a college intern in 2013. I graduated from the University of Central Missouri in 2013 with a Bachelors of Science degree majoring in public relations and minor in marketing. After college, I took an on-air position at KIX 105.7, 92.3 BOB FM, and 1050 AM KSIS. I currently host the Cool Country Afternoons on KIX 105.7 from 3PM-7PM. I also work as an Account Executive and Event Planner for the stations. I’m a huge sports fan. My teams are the Kansas City Chiefs, Royals, Los Angeles Lakers, and Mizzou. My favorite superhero is Batman and Game of Thrones is my favorite TV show. I never turn down a cold beer and good BBQ. Cheers.
