I love Michigan and have been on-air & programming radio stations all over our beloved state including Flint, Saginaw, Detroit, Grand Rapids and now Kalamazoo. I constantly crave a good round of golf and a good local Michigan brewed IPA. I also enjoy Kayaking, Biking, Fantasy Football and many home improvement projects that keep me busy when not on the radio. I Love being back in West Michigan and back on a morning show in particular. This is going to be fun listeners of WRKR – please feel free to contact me about anything and everything RKR if ever you have a question, comment, or complaint – I’m here for you and thank you allowing us to be a part of your lives!
