I got my start when a I was a tyke singing and dancing to musicals in my living room in Munster, Indiana. My first impressions were culled from watching Hello Dolly & My Fair Lady. I used to impersonate Louis Armstrong & Audrey Hepburn’s cockneyed character, Eliza Doolittle. At Arizona State University, I fell madly in love with radio & worked at the campus station, KASR. I spun alternative music when there was such a thing as TRULY ALTERNATIVE (but I digress) as well as performed characters such as “Mo in the Snow.” My dear friend, Richard Cheese of Lounge Against the Machine fame, swears he still holds vintage airchecks of that character. Today, the old KASR studio remains in the exact same spot on campus in Tempe, AZ. Go SunDevils!

I’ve been on-air at 91X, KTCL, KJQN, Live 105, Alice 97.3 & KTRB. It was at 91X in SanDiego that I became a regular fixture on the Berger & Prescott Morning Show along with comedian Rusty Nails. Some of my original characters that surfaced on a regular basis were a young boy named Kenny, a bitter old lady that sounds like a female Paul Lynde called Meriam Frankly & a woman from Queens, New York by the name of Lydia Coppoli who I modeled after one of my girlfriend’s mother.

After 8 years at Live 105 and the sorry state of homogenized radio thanks to deregulation, I was over it. In 2001, I saw famed treesitter/activist Julia Butterfly Hill speak & left Live 105 to found a hip, green media company called “PlanetCheck.” This past August, I hosted & produced a short-form PlanetCheck News interview on “Peak Food” for Comcast’s VOD “Green Scene” channel 888. I’ve also co-hosted and produced several talk shows in San Francisco: Green Seed Radio, The Modern Rock Doc Show, Bay Area Dining Out and Meet the Planet.

Since 2004, I’ve been blessed to be the voice of the animated hottie, “Erin Esurance.” My latest project is the 10 year old boy voice of “Bucket” in the new, animated webisode called “Gorilla in the Greenhouse.” Other credits include VO for Disney, Sony Playstation, Mtv.com, Cox Communications, Nissan, IDEO and Save the Redwoods documentary and more.

Just like a plant, if you’re not growing, you’re dead. It is my hope to continue to bloom while honing my craft.
