In case you were ever wondering, here's a little more about me...I was born and raised right here in southern Wisconsin - I was born in Waukesha and raised in Oconomowoc (proud graduate of OHS, class of 2003!).
I moved to Milwaukee after high school and got my first job in radio. I'm very proud to have worked at FM106.1 with Karen, Scott and Radar and Kerry Wolfe.
In 2011, I was offered a job "transfer" to be the Online Content Director for the Clear Channel radio stations in Madison. There, Mr. Mike Ferris offered me the job of host on 96.3 Star Country - and I couldn't be happier.
I'm a self-proclaimed nerd, mama's boy, homebody and all-around nice guy. Next time you're near a radio, turn it on and enjoy the music on 96.3 Star Country. I'm playing it just for you weekdays and Saturdays 10a-3p.

The A&E reality show Duck Dynasty has teamed up with Hallmark to release a line of greeting cards for Father's Day on June 16.
Three different cards will be available at Walmart stores beginning June 3. They will feature the men of the Robertson family -- Willie, Phil, Jase and Uncle Si -- in all their bearded glory on the cover with snappy messages inside.
First it was the "Ship My Pants" ad that got everyone excited, laughing and remembering that K-Mart existed...now it's a new one called "Big Gas Savings."
Say it juuuuust right and you'll get the joke. Or watch:
I really hope we see more stories like this one!
While the TV crew is filming an interview with a woman whose house was destroyed in the Oklahoma tornadoes on Monday, she's talks about how her dog has been missing.
Suddenly, the dog, still alive, pokes its head out from under the rubble - just feet from where the news reporter is interviewing the woman.
On Friday night, Jake Owen's concert got a little "nuts!"
Jake admitted on Twitter that he had "gone commando," so when his pants started to rip, he had to do some quick thinking! So he pulled off his shirt and stuffed it down his pants to avoid really putting on a show!
I'm sure none of the women in audience cared too much, since they got to see Jake jump and prance around the stage shirtless for the rest of the show!
Here's video of Jake finishing his song "8 Second Ride:"
After the show, Jake hopped on Twitter to make some jokes about his lack of attire!
Charleston, SC will never be forgotten. My jeans ripped on stage tonight. Going commando=bad idea. Although, great breeze here. Coastal town
