Hey everyone! Thanks for visiting my page! For those of you who may not know, I have been roaming these halls since I was just a toddler. I began my radio career at 4 years old in 1990 when my father (Jon James) signed on as a morning show host. Since then, however, I have become an official employee here at Townsquare Media. I was brought on in the summer of 2002 when I began working the technical end of our live broadcasts and doing overnight on-air shifts. If you'd like to know more about that, or anything that I do here, don't hesitate to drop me a line anytime!
