A Little About Dave

On 12/21/68 two incredibly happy & lucky parents welcomed a delightfully beautiful baby boy into their lives. Right about the same time, my parents  got stuck with me!  (insert wicked laughter here)

Being a true native of the state, I'm a proud Florida cracker & Southern boy, with all the benefits of a quality Florida education behind me (insert hysterical laughter here) & (much to my parents surprise) I graduated Hillsborough High School in Tampa... an event which continues to confound the Guiness World Record people to this very day!

Then came THE BIG question:  "now that high school's done, what do you want to do?" I announced my retirement expecting a big party & a gold watch, but instead I received a disdainful look from my mother. You know that look. Anyone with a mother has gotten that look at one time or another! So I opted to attend Hillsborough Community College.

My original desire was to do voices for cartoons but I somehow found myself being drawn into the mysterious world of radio. I bid farewell to friends & family (you can still hear the echoes of relief & happiness from that farewell party!) and moved to Fort Lauderdale to finish my education & launch my career by attending Bauder College (formerly the Brown Institute). I graduated in July of '90. During my stay in Fort Lauderdale I worked in the research department of WMXJ, to be followed by a stint at WKXY in Sarasota.

After a death in the family I left radio to pursue other odd ventures such as marriage, family & the wicked world of retail sales. Alas my heart belonged to radio and in April of 2003 I found myself on the doorstep of KIX Country begging for gainful employment. When they stopped laughing & saw I was still standing there, they felt sorry for me and here I am!

I do have a special show I'm very proud of on Sunday mornings.  It's the "KIX Country 92.9 Weekly Top 30 Countdown" & it contains (as the name implies) the 30 Hottest country songs in the USA for the week, interviews with the biggest stars & the week in country music news.
