I'm a lifelong Louisiana resident who grew up in New Orleans and moved to Lafayette to go to college. While studying for a degree in Broadcasting and working weekends in radio, I fell in love with Acadiana and decided to stay put after graduation. I've been on the radio in Acadiana since 1977. I'd love it if you'd join CJ and me weekday mornings from 6-10. I promise you'll get great music, the info you need to start your day and a few laughs along the way!
