About Me



I stay busy and entertained! I've worked in the Clarksville/Nashville area for the past 7 years. I am the Production Director for a group of radio stations and I am also on the air on one of them.
__________
I'm originally from Western Kentucky. I now call the Clarksville/Nashville area my home. I've worked in just about every media category out there: newspaper, television and radio. As you can imagine, working in broadcasting has allowed me to have some pretty interesting hilights in my life. Years ago, while working in television, I got the rare opportunity to spend the day and travel with George H.W. Bush. I got to talk to him for a good amount of time. I've met every politician you can imagine. I've met just about every country star on the radio. (I've became good friends with quite a few as well.) No, you can't have their phone numbers LOL!
I'm just winging it through life, having fun along the way. I am very quiet most of the time. I do have my moments when people ask me to shut up! LOL I am quite the prankster sometimes. It sucks though, because of this reputation, ANYTIME something goes awry at work - ALL fingers immediately point to me whether I did it or not!
I am always up for chat, dinner, movies, HIKING etc.

My Interests

Camping, Hiking, Walking, Music, Movies, good coffee hot tea, peanut butter, honey, oatmeal, veggies, cooking. Oh, did I mention coffee and hot tea?

I'm a HAM radio operator...
Callsign: KI4JIZ
I am a SKYWARN certified storm spotter with the National Weather Service office. I like chasing tornados and getting stuck in thunderstorms!


I'd like to meet:


Anyone who is open minded, can handle being in the spotlight every once in a while and anyone who appreciates those of us who are in the entertainment world. I would also like to meet someone who is sweet, soft spoken, caring, someone who likes to go on hikes, go camping and shoot pellet guns ;-)

Music:

How well do you know your country music?
You really know your country music!

Chance's are you grew up listening to it, or maybe you just started but either way you know what's going on in the country music world.

Take this test
Mostly country, duh! But I do like other stuff. I DO NOT like rap, or real heavy stuff - It's VERY irritating to me. There's enough noise in my life already! LOL

More songs at official site, click here!

Movies:

Walk The Line, Friday Night Lights, Radio, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Ladder 49, Wedding Crashers, Donnie Darko, Bubble Boy, Chicago... I like anything comedy related. The dumber the better. I like all Adam Sandler movies, All Chris Farley's stuff, American Pie 1 & 2, American Wedding, Mr Deeds, Sorority Boys, Orange County, Bruce Almighty, Van Wilder, Super Troopers, Anger Management, Bring It On, Dude Where's My car, Say It Isn't So, Freddy Got Fingered, Road Trip, O Brother Where art thou, etc. I have a couple hundred movies - an eclectic collection of stuff from the past 12 years

Television:

Well I make TV! On June 20th I accepted the position of "Station Director" for WCKV - CTV, a new TV station in Clarksville Tennessee. I am the dude that's in charge of programming and programming concepts. I will also oversee the audio, lighting and studio operations of C-TV Charter Cable Channel 27. I am super excited about this new challenge in my life! We also have several local reality shows that will be rolling out soon. SOOOO, keep watching for some exciting changes -Hey you haven't Seen TV until you C-TV!

Books:

I'm not much of a reader. I do write a lot! Well, I read what I write... so... yeah I do read a lot...

Heroes:

My best friend: SPC Sean Ryan, who is one of the bravest and kindest friends I've ever had the privilege of knowing. We became friends at the first of the year but I feel like I've known him forever. I've never gotten so attached to one human being in my life. He's the younger brother I never had. He is quite a bit younger than me, but I look up to him because of his choice to serve our country. He leaves for IRAQ in September or October and will be gone for 15 months. It's going to be really hard to keep entertained while he is gone. He has some awesome dreams for his future and he plans on creating a ranch-style rehabilitation center for troubled teens. If so, I will be proud to work right along beside him. Sean, just like I told you to your face, you are most definitely my hero and a hero to many of us who don't have the guts to do what you do. You will be in my thoughts and prayers daily. I Love ya bro! I'm actually gonna miss being shot with the pellet gun while you are away ;-(
