I LOVE being a part of the Quick Country family. I grew up in the area, and feel truly blessed to be a part of Rochester radio! I'm in love with radio, and country music is my favorite, so I couldn't ask for a better job. :) When you don't hear me infecting your airways, chances are you'll catch me on a softball field. I'm a tomboy who's obsessed with shoes, esp heels (don't ask me how that worked out). I've met the man of my dreams, and now am a step mom to the sweetest little boy! I also spend a lot of time with my "mini me" sister. I'm an auntie to two beautiful boys (SUCH a cool feeling). My dogs are pretty much the cutest on the face of the planet. And, the person I admire the most is my grandmother. She is no longer with us, but I know she's smiling down on me. She is the reason I joined the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, so I can help find a cure for that terrible disease. I'm the Media Chair for the organization, and I love being such a big part of a great cause.

The Real Life Wolverine – Self Healing Implant?
When asked what superhero I'd most want to be - my answer is Wolverine! Sure he doesn't have a whole lot of awesome tricks up his sleeve, BUT he self heals! Could you imagine that? Making it a little more realistic, imagine never having to take another painkiller or antibiotic

Samm’s Zoo of a Bed

“The Road to Success Is Always Under Construction” Steve Harvey
Steve Harvey is one of my all time favorites. He's always handing out advice to everyone that needs it. The 3rd season of the Steve Harvey show kicked off this week so he had an interview with Access Hollywood. Billy Bush asked him about his failures that he writes about in his book "Act Like Success, Think Like Success"...
