I grew up in El Paso and began my radio career working at B94FM in the '80s. In the '90s, I moved to Dallas and worked at KICK-FM. I also got my bachelors degree in Finance from University of Texas - Arlington. After graduation from UTA, I started my career in investments at Fidelity in Dallas. I then moved to the west coast to work for Edward Jones in Redondo Beach, California. JPMorganChase in El Paso offered me an opportunity to work with "offshore" clients in El Paso. I jumped at the chance to come home. I came to realize that the people of El Paso were special. El Paso is special. AT JPMorganChase I traveled throughout Mexico and Latin America, helping clients grow and preserve their wealth. I was able to work with some incredible people. In 2006, I was promoted to Houston, where I began to work with wealthy clients from Mexico City, so I spent a lot of time there. I even worked with a few celebrities. Now I have brought my experience to 93.1 KISS FM. Its great to come back to radio after all these years, I would have never dreamed I would make a full circle with my life." "I love people, I love El Paso, and I love my job!
