About

Bio

While no longer in radio I previously was in the industry for 17 years of experience, I’ve been recognized as Canada’s Music Director of the Year in 2021 and 2022 (and a runner-up in 2020 and 2023). I’ve championed some of the biggest bands in the country, specializing in Alternative, Rock, and Folk, but I’ve got a soft spot for pop too! I thrive on working with emerging artists, helping them refine their sound, and spent over a decade curating a weekly program spotlighting independent talent from coast to coast. Let’s make some noise!
