Ok. So originally, I had a bio written, but I went back to look it over and realized it was pretty boring. And if you read that and think, “Man. this girl is boooring”, then that would be kinda bogus. So here’s the new and exciting revision!
What’s goin’ on?! Mi llamo Blair! I was born in the San Francisco Bay Area in eighty-four and I’ve lived in Vegas since ninety-three.
I know what you’re thinking. “Vegas! I wonder what hotel she lives in!”
Ha. Nope. No hotels. Actually, most locals try to kick it away from the Strip. I live near it, so it’s almost unavoidable. But it makes for an awesome view at the outskirts of town.
Ok. So here’s my big radio story.
You know the early nineties tv show, Northern Exposure? A show about a group of people in a tiny town in Alaska. My dad LOVED this show. So it was on a lot. There’s a character named Chris Stevens (played by John Corbett) and he’s the radio dude in the town. His personality was quirky, he said what was on his mind, and people thought he was great. His character was just real. When he was on-air, he connected with the listeners. And the first time I watched that show, I KNEW I wanted to do the same.
There’s the inspiration. Now for the follow-thru.
I turned sixteen and sent in applications and resumes once a week for about three years. I knew this was what I wanted and I was gonna do whatever it took to get in. Eventually, I landed a spot in our Music Research Dep. Got my foo tin the door. Then, made my way over to MIX 94.1, made great friends with the Afternoon jock, Jason Rooney, and got my first chance to be on air as Afternoon Drive Producer.
Looking back, it seemed to take forever to accomplish anything.
Now? It just seems as though time flew by. Hope many people at my age can say they have a job they love no matter how many hours are spent doing it? Not too many. And I love to learn. So anything anyone around here can teach me is welcomed with open arms!
