News Anchor, twice hourly from 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Graduated from LSUS in 2003 with a bachelor's degree in communications; been working in radio for about eight years (six of those in the news department); now enjoying being a mom! Hobbies include singing and playing music, writing and reading. I even have a band of my own! (Aimless...look us up!) Favorite author is Stephen King...but have of late been branching out in the reading department (of course, it's still all fiction...I've just changed up on the authors). Also really enjoy Jennifer Weiner's and Carrie Fisher's work.
