My title is Public Relations Director for Rancho Coastal Humane Society, but I usually go by Spokesman or “The guy who says what the dogs and cats would say if they could talk.” I was raised in Iowa, attended college in Minnesota, then embarked on a 26-year career in broadcasting. Most of my broadcasting career was on the radio, but it also included television, voiceovers, character voices, commercial, and comedy writing. Toward the end of my fulltime broadcasting career, I accepted an offer to teach broadcasting for one semester as an Adjunct Professor at Palomar College. That one semester stretched into 12 years as a part time professor. When the Federal Communications Commission began deregulation of radio, I turned my 26 years of broadcasting experience to animal shelter Public Relations. I have been at Rancho Coastal Humane Society since July 2011.
