About Me

I'm a 34-year-old soccer-playing redhead working for a toy company in Tempe, Arizona. I've been married to my lovely wife for eight years - we live in South Tempe with our baby Boy Derek (born 9/30/06). I'm a eight-year veteran of the Talk Radio industry who you might have heard on Phoenix's XTRA Sports 910 (from 1995-2000), or Washington DC's WTEM 980 (2000-2002) and WTOP (2002-2003). I passed over an opportunity to produce at ESPN Radio to join McFarlane Toys and now serve as the Sports Brand Manager, overseeing action figure lines representing MLB, the NBA, NFL and NHL. I love my job and life is moving along just fine right now!
