SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCE
Ranging from on-air announcing to "running the board" for numerous remotes, to the production of spots and
PSAs, I have developed and demonstrated strong abilities in running a solid program regardless of format or
day-part, while being able to multi-task in production when time allowed. In short, my skill sets have been
cultivated from a combination of mostly self-education and independent study, with plenty of hands-on ‘in-the-
field’ training. Not only was my education developed towards the technical side of radio, but also expanded by
the learning and understanding of how management, programming, advertising and engineering work together to
deliver a solid and consistent on-air product to the listener. Below is a list of my responsibilities and
achievements. Within all of this, my pursuits in broadcasting helped me to improve and advance my personal and
professional communication skills in the industry and the workplace in general.
