About
I arrived in New Zealand from Sausalito, California the same day GST kicked in, Oct. 1, 1986. I settled in Stewart Island ‘till ’93, spent time in Dunedin and eventually ended up in Nelson in ’98. I got involved in radio at Otago University with the B-NET station, Radio One. There I rediscovered my love of music, got on-air skills, sold advertising and ended up volunteering for Fresh FM when I arrived in Nelson. A short stint at RadioWorks (Fifeshire House) brought me back to Fresh FM, this time in a paid position as Programme Director. It’s been my dream job since 2003.
