Jims Life has always revolved around music and radio.  Having a dad with a master's degree in music education, becoming a musician was a given.  When he wasn't spending hours playing the drums (and later guitar) he'd be sitting next to his cassette boom box ready to record his favorite song off the air.  As such, it seemed only natural that he'd end up working at some of the stations he listened to: at age 16, WEOS-FM, a brief stint after graduation at WGVA, and a total of 17 years at WSFW in Seneca falls.  2025 marks 44 years being on the air and a quarter century at FLX local media.  Jim enjoys  making music, accumulating music gear and antique tube radios while reflecting on how he's managed to avoid a career all this time.
