Education
"I Graduated from Blue Valley High School (Stilwell) in 2005. Currently attending Kansas State University majoring in Mass Communications- Electronic Media and plans to graduate in 2009."

Why I Went Into Radio
"Having been involved with television since my sophomore year in high school, I tried starting up radio broadcasts of basketball games during my BVHS tenure. We only go to do one game! So when I saw an opportunity in Manhattan, I figured I’d try my hand at sports radio again."

Activities/Events
"To say I’m obsessed with sports is an understatement. Besides Sports Radio 1350, I also am one of the producers of the campus sports television show “Purple Power Hour” which airs during the school year on Cox Cable. I’ll also be assisting the eCollegian in the fall with their new online sports coverage. I love intramural sports too- watch out for the Natty Knights!"

Hobbies
"Tailgating and tracking collegiate sports on rivals.com and ksufans.com- I’m an addict."
