I am news, sports and weather director for Townsquare Media in Texarkana. I’ve been in the radio business since 1982 and enjoy relaying important information to our listeners, particularly weather alerts and sports information. A lifelong Texarkana resident, I am married and have two children, a 16 year-old boy and 12 year-old girl. (I’m a big fan of the Dallas Cowboys, Texas Rangers and the St. Louis Cardinals. My favorite season is fall when I can warm up with a big bowl of my homemade Texas Chili & watch the World Series and football on TV.. If I ever win the lottery, I would love to have two vacation homes: one in the Rocky Mountains and the other on a sugar white beach in Florida.
