PRODUCER

Jim worked at
Dominos Pizza and help develop a marketing campaign that led to
back-to-back success. Eventually he earned enough money to run and own 8
pizza joints of his own. However, this was not his intentions to make
pizzas for a living. It was time for a career change.
Jim considered about
getting into television and/or radio. He started with taking classes at
Columbia College. He started volunteering on a
hit TV show
while contributing to a popular
midday radio show. He was enjoying his participation with both
productions as a hobby and realized that he really wanted to get into this
business as career. It was a Professor at Columbia that told him that it
would take him 3 years in school to be considered for an intern position.
However, the Professor advised Jim to apply for a Marketing/Promotion
position and work his way up from the inside. He did just that.
WKIE-FM 92.7/5 hired
him where he worked his way into the morning show by playing sound effects
and filling in for the departed intern. In no time, he was booking guests
and putting music beds together. Soon thereafter, Jim was hired as one of
Melissa's Producers and has been by Melissa's side ever since.
