My time at Public Radio 90 began about twenty years ago as a student at NMU. I began working at WNMU-FM as a Board Operator in October of 1987. I worked a good two and a half years on various on-air shifts including Morning Edition and Night Studio Jazz. Night studio propelled me into the world of radio jazz. After graduating with a Bachelors of Science Degree in Marketing/Management from NMU, I then left campus life to work in retail management.
