What’s better than living in Maine? Working in radio while living in Maine! I am truly living out my dream and am so excited to be with Coast. I started doing radio in college for our student station and was hooked from the start. I spent a majority of my time at school broadcasting sports, but could never seem to kick my love for music. I am more or less a lifer in Maine (yes I was born in Massachusetts, but I moved here when I was three and have no memory of living anywhere but Maine.) I grew up in Cape Neddick and in a perfect world I would stay here forever. Like most Mainers I deal with the winter, so I can live here in the summer. As long as the weather is nice enough I am at the beach every chance I get from June through September. For as much time as I spent at the beach the last few years, I just started surfing about a year ago, and I don’t know why I didn’t start sooner. My life is pretty simple and consists of mostly “working” (if you can call this work), surfing and either watching sports or listening to music. For some that might seem boring, but it fits me just right!
