I would love to work on-air in the U.S. I used to listen to American radio growing up, and it is what interested me initially, along with a chance opportunity at a station while still in high school. I was 16 at my first radio job. It's something I have always felt comfortable doing, and I had always hoped in some way, I helped bring people some enjoyment or made them feel they had a companion in our station."
