About Me |
|
| In a nutshell, i grew up in Burlington NC, graduated from UNCW with degrees in English and Creative Writing. Caught that travel bug, backpacked Europe and South Africa. Came back to Wilmington and decided I wasn't done yet, moved to Ireland to work in a pub in Dublin for a while. Headed back to Spain and Portugal....and then back to home Wilmington NC again. Got at job as a dj for a Triple A/Americana radio station, dj for radio Bonnaroo, and wrote a weekly music column for the Wilmington paper.Now I live in beautiful Charlottesville, VA with Phillip. I am a dj at a music station called 106.1 The Corner, and work as a news reporter during the day for Newsradio WINA and Progressive Talk WVAX. I am the Virginia producer for the Public New Service, and a stringer for Sirius Radio news. I volunteer at a shelter in my extra time. Love doing all of it. Every day is different, and I get to meet/interview/hopefully help so many incredible and interesting people.We still have a place at Wrightsville Beach--and I still love it there. It will always be home, wherever I end up. I still tuck away my travel fund. Only now its a coin jar that also functions as coffee money, parking meter change, gotta-have-that-new-album money, so on.... | |
My Interests |

| Political cartoons. Country drives and farmhouses. Gin. Anyone that really knows how to tell a good story. Friends that love to travel. Sweet tea. | |

Channel 3's hard to see.Channel 4 is just a bore.Channel 5 is all jive.Channel 6 needs to be fixed.Channel 7 and Channel 8-Just old movies, not so great.Channel 9's a waste of time.Channel 10 is off, my child.Wouldn't you like to talk a while?...................................................... .....................or as Cameron says "If you would like a quick glimpse into the decline of civilization, watch "The Flavor of Love". If you squint, you can see a mushroom cloud and all four Horsemen." |

Books:Lorrie Moore again, at the moment. " I am thinking not of my own body here, that unbeguilable, broken basket, that stiff meringue. I am not, Patrick, thinking only of myself, my lost troupe, my empty bed. I think of the dancing body's magnificent and ostentatious scorn. This is how we offer ourselves, enter heaven, enter speaking: we say with motion, in space, This is what life's done so far down here; this is all and what and everything it's managed-this body, these bodies, that body-so what do you think, Heaven? What do you fucking think? |
