I'm half of the 98 Country Morning Show along with Cindy Wear. I came from the Fargo area where I was most recently the Program Director and Morning Show Host for KQLX 890 AM, where we specialized in Agricultural Programming. I have worked in radio around 17 years total in many capacities. I am married to a wonderful woman from Germany, we have no kids and we live an active lifestyle enjoying nature and the outdoors.
