Hi! Thanks for stopping by 96.7 The River! I hope you're as happy to be here as I am! After being on the air since the age of 18, I decided to hang up my headphones awhile back. Well.....never say never, because here we are again! After living in Colorado for awhile, and on the east coast for about 20 years, I made my way back home to Minnesota several years ago. Jay and I live in St. Joseph with our dog Neena, and our herd of cats. We are also a hospice foster home with Grey Face Rescue. When I'm not on the air, I put on my Creative Directors hat at the station, working in the production department. Outside of work, I volunteer at the Tri-County Humane Society, love love love to travel, spend time with our furry kids, get together with family and friends, read, go to festivals and art fairs, and just hang out in the backyard. I'm a big believer that life gives back to you what you give to others. Kindness, empathy, patience, understanding and love. You have the opportunity to make a difference in every single life that you come into contact with. Always be kind!

Jailed For A Messy Yard
When I lived in Colorado, I rented a house that had a tall fence around my back yard. There were weeds growing outside of that fence, in the alley. I didn't realize those weeds were my responsibility too. They were. And while I didn't go to jail for it, I did get a notice from the city. This woman in Tennessee wasn't as lucky.

My Favorite Moment From Last Night [VIDEO]
This moment stopped me in my tracks. It stopped Neena in her tracks too. We were out for a walk, and when she heard the birds, she was afraid to walk by! I thought the sound was beautiful. Turn up your volume.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!
Somewhere along the way, someone taught us that Christopher Columbus discovered America. Maybe he did sail the ocean blue in 1492, but it took me awhile to figure out the truth.

The Oldest Minnesotan Signs Up For Facebook
My Mom will turn 77 next week, and I think it's great that we email each other every day, she listens to us online every morning, and she has a Facebook page. Technology doesn't have an age limit. Not when you're 77, 87, not even when you're 113.
