Personal Note:

Que pasa! Thanks for taking the time to check out my page. I started at Y100 in January 2005 and it’s been an amazing 2 ½ years. Im on the air Saturday and Sunday, I’m, also the “fill-in” guy when vacation time rolls around so you might hear me on the Yo Show, Midday’s or in the evenings.

Here’s my story and I’m sticking to it; I’ve always loved entertaining people and started as a promoter handing out flyers at 14yrs old for a teen club in Fort Lauderdale. Later on I hosted and promoted local nightclubs and events including spring break parties and summer bashes. I loved it! I met so many great people and worked on some cool parties.

In 2000 I made the big move from South Florida to NYC for a job on Queen Latifah’s talk show. Next I moved over to MTV, where I work as talent coordinator, working on the VMA’s, TRL, MTV Movie Awards and other special event shows. Here’s where it gets a little weird…in 2003 I was hired by the Olsen Twins, that’s right Mary Kate and Ashley but that got boring pretty fast, so then I decided to try get a job in radio. I was hired at 103.5 WKTU in NYC as a producer and within a few months I made my way on- air doing the overnight shift! Iit never happens that fast, I guess I got lucky. After KTU, I did a stint at 106.1 BLI in Long Island as the evening guy and then I came back home to South Florida to work here at Y100 and I’m happy to be back! I learned something along the way, never be afraid to try something new and do everything you can while you can. My motto is: try everything once, twice if you like it! And don’t make promises you can’t keep.
