I'm going to have to agree with Jon above that writing a bio is the worst thing ever but here it goes!
My name is Jake (obviously) and I'm an Orange County (you call it "The OC") native from southern California. I was always the class clown and made visits to the principal's office many many times. 5th grade was the point in my life where I decided that I had to be on the radio and make people laugh for a living.
I started radio as a traffic reporter in Los Angeles and from there had a bunch of radio and television producing jobs in LA, including producing the traffic for Ryan Seacrest's morning show. While I could have stayed in LA and just produced, it wasn't what I wanted to do in radio. So I moved on.
Before coming to Maine I worked for Froggy 101 in Scranton PA for 4 years (Yes, the same station that's on "The Office"). Not being a country fan when I first started, I grew to absolutely love and completely understand country. Now I don't think I'd be happy working for any other format.
On a personal level I'm engaged to my gorgeous fiance Tiffany and have an instant daughter Alyssa. I love my insta-family and can't think of life before them. Tiff and I are both giant hockey fans and I play ice hockey, as well as rec softball. I love both!
It will take some time getting used to Maine, but it's absolutely gorgeous and I don't think I'll have any problems fitting in.
