Happy National Radio Day, Jess!
Today is National Radio Day, and we’re celebrating by highlighting your favorite on air personalities! They share their passion for radio, and some fun photos too!
Jess is our newest addition to Kicks 99, but she’s been in a radio for a while. Here are her thoughts on her career:
Radio has allowed me the opportunity to connect with people that I would never have the chance to meet if I was working in any other field. I’ve traveled the world, met some amazing artists, but most importantly I’ve made lifelong friends and consider many of them ‘family’. That includes other people who work in radio and listeners. It’s pretty amazing to make a living and have fun at the same time.
Check out some photos throughout her career!
