About Me
From a young age there were two things I always wanted to do. I wanted to work on a television show and I wanted it to have a positive impact on the world. This is why I chose to start a radio show. It is why I chose to earn a Bachelor's degree in Screenwriting/Playwriting with a focus in television. And it’s why I’m dedicated to working with people who highlight the good in humanity and celebrates creativity.
