Jackie

Hey Guys I’m Jackie, a recent college graduate from Ferris State University, and a full time on air personality for 97.9 WGRD, you can listen to me every night 7pm-Midnight!

I was born in Lansing, but grew up down in Portage. I love Grand Rapids, and that includes going to check out all the local music GR has to offer, sing karaoke every chance I get, and shop at all the local thrift stores and malls (I KNOW HOW TO BLOW MONEY BABY!)

Some important things you should know about me: I eat very badly, that includes pizza, burgers, french fries and anything else that I probably shouldn’t eat… BUT I make up for it by being an extremely avid runner, I ran cross country and track for Ferris State for 4 years plus a red-shirt year.  I read more than anyone I know… and of coarse that includes Harry Potter and other fantasy style novels. You can catch me and my girls dressed up at every dorky movie premier you can think of!

I love working for WGRD and I love all my co-workers and alternachick sisters.

Schedule

M-F 7:00 pm - 12:00 am
Sa 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Jackie Gets Paintafied!

This past Friday I ventured out to Kalamazoo with some friends for Dayglow 2012! Dayglow is an amazing concert/show that involves a ton of lights, ariel dancers, pyrotechnics and PAINT! It's called the worlds largest paint party, black light, and TONS of neon paint make for one super fun night! I took a ton of photos I'm lucky I didn't ruin my phone with all the paint that was everywhere!

Drunk Midget on a Porn Set [VIDEO]

This video is just what you would imagine it being, weird. Take one midget porn star, a lot of booze, and a video camera and you have this. It had me laughing but I'm an idiot with a bad sense of humor... hopefully you'll enjoy it though!

In Honor Of Whitney Houston…Kinda [VIDEO]

Alright, I don't really listen to Whitney Houston but there is no denying the lady had pipes. Pretty tragic she died and since none of us actually want to listen to her old 80's classics I thought why not remember how great her voice was by listening to a pissed off little girl who is not near as talented... watch this video and you will understand
