Hello again, Acadiana! I'm so excited to be back on the air on 99.9 KTDY. It's my honor to continue a broadcasting tradition that has gone on for decades. I'm a proud graduate of UL Lafayette and have spent time on both TV and radio in Acadiana. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to move around the country and I have made stops at FOX Television and CNN Newsource. I have been 'using my voice' for as long as I can remember. My family would say my first gig was to perform on the fireplace at family gatherings as a toddler. It's been all downhill from there! Thank you for listening and keep in touch with the chat feature on the KTDY mobile app.
