Hi! I'm your "Early Morning Radio Pal!" Originally from Seattle, I've lived all over the United States--thanks to radio. I've lived in Savannah, Winston-Salem, Greenville-Spartanburg(S.C.), Dallas, Colorado Springs, Spokane, Great Falls, Columbus, Spokane(a 2nd time), and now here in Bismarck-Mandan. My dad--the late Jack Hemingway did radio in Seattle and by the time I was 3 I knew that radio would be my career choice. Started when I was 16, and I've been "On The Air" ever since! I love concerts(my favorite was seeing Fleetwood Mac live in 2004), movies--favorites are "Sleepless In Seattle," "When Harry Met Sally," and "Serendipity." On the small screen I love "NCIS," and "NCIS: LA." I have a big music collection and love everything from Johnny Mathis and Sergio Mendes to Fleetwood Mac, Steve Winwood, Hall & Oates, and Rod Stewart to Rob Thomas and especially love the music I play in the morning here in "Cool 98.7." I have a couple of cool old cars---a 1978 VW Beetle convertible--red with black top, and a 1972 Volvo 1800ES--again it's red in color and a very unusual car, they only imported 1,680 of those into the U.S. from Sweden in 1972. I'm single. And I love waking you up every weekday morning starting around 545!! See you at the Cool 98.7 Breakfast Table!
