B96 – WBBM-FM, CHICAGO, IL

Imaging Director, April 1995-Present
Currently I am the Imaging Director at B-96, responsible for producing station promos, sweepers, as well as voicing and producing commercials. In this capacity I have been instrumental in the re-launch of several CBS properties, including Hot 95.5 in Houston, B94 in Pittsburgh, 101.5 Jamz in Phoenix and the recent transformation here at B96. I use Adobe Audition daily, as well as the Orban Audicy, Ableton Live, the Eventide H-3000 Harmonizer, the Aphex Dominator II, Audio Vault, and many other production tools on a daily basis.
