I was born in Billings Montana, and moved to Grenora in 1976. My family then moved to Williston in 1980, and I was a Williston Coyote until my junior year where a death in our family brought me back to Grenora. I graduated as a Gopher in 1993, and then graduated from UND-Williston in 1995. That was a big year for me as I was hired at KEYZ that same year. When I am not on-air, I enjoy working in my yard, a great steak, Vegas, Keno, and a cool Coca-Cola. I also love the Vikings, and I do enjoy getting back to Grenora to watch the Gophers or Mon-Dak Thunder play from time to time too. I genuinely love the Mon-Dak region, and the best part of my job is meeting all of our great listeners.
