Being told I had to write a bio for the ‘New’ website, made me cringe and immediately miss the ‘Old’ website. I searched the internet for ‘tips on writing a bio’, ‘how to write a bio for your website’, etc… Basically, they’re all the same. BORING. I’ve also come to realize that it’s nearly impossible to list your skills & talents or point out your accomplishments without sounding like a complete douchebag. I was fine with just being a regular douchebag (without a bio)…but since it’s required – I’ll do my best to NOT be boring while providing little to no douchebaggery.
Yes, I am from Presque Isle. Yes, I have all my own teeth. (Commonly follows the previous statement.) No, you may not check my teeth to be sure. I am not a horse and YOU are not a dentist. I’m not related to the Knight family from (insert town/state here). I’m not really a Knight. That’s a made-up radio name.
I have a husband named Sean, a daughter named Caitlin and a son named Jared.
I’ve got two Jack Russell Terriers – Roscoe ‘The Storm Dog’ and Molly.
Yes, I have been married 3 times. Yes, the third time is a charm. No, you can’t have Roscoe, but I might trade Molly for a bottle of Advil and a Reuben sandwich.
I am an only child – not surprising.
I am a fan of beer, Guinness taking the top spot on the list. I do not like spiders, but don’t mind reptiles or rats. I love going to the fair, and the goats are my favorite animal to visit. I prefer cake to pie, I don’t tuck the sheets when I make the bed and I am afraid of drowning. I love tattoos, on myself as well as others. I have 5 and am planning the next. I wish I had the balls to get a sleeve, ‘cause that would kick ass.
I once worked for the State Attorney in Orlando Florida. Until, I was fired for making 900 calls to a psychic. I blame my co-worker Wendy for that, she’s the one who kept having me to do it from the reception desk & putting it on speaker phone. Shuuuh!
I have no formal education in radio or anything else for that matter. (I took ‘Algebra I’ three times – thus proving I am NOT a mathlete.) I did take Tae Kwon Do, but I can’t kick my left leg any higher than my waist these days, so let’s not even count that. In fact, forget I mentioned it.
I wet my pants in my 2nd grade class, and tried to convince my classmates & teacher that it was a leak in the ceiling. They didn’t buy it.
That’s about as far as I can go without being a Douchemonger. I’ve got no fancy accolades to list anyhow. I do love my job though, and gladly admit that it was a life-long dream for me – that I NEVER thought would come true.
