Dakota | Monday – Friday, 5:00am – 10:00am

I’ve been lucky enough to work as a radio DJ in Bakersfield, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, Tucson and Ventura. In my spare time, I can be found hanging out at home improvement stores, going to the movies, walking my dogs and taking pictures. Follow me on Twitter: @DakotaFM1 

Fun Facts: 

Hometown: Van Nuys, CA 

How She Got into Radio: I had a speech teacher in high school who was obsessed with my voice. He thought I sounded like the actress, Holly Hunter. Since Raising Arizona was one of my favorite movies growing up, I thought it was an awesome comparison. I was always obsessed with music, although in those days it was Depeche Mode, The Cure and Nine Inch Nails. But his obsession got me thinking that maybe I could use my voice as a career one day. So, I took some radio classes at Moorpark College and got an internship at Y-107 in Los Angeles. The rest is history as they say. 

Favorite Classic Hits Artists: Blondie, Prince, The Police and Heart 

Favorite Sports Teams: I’m not a big sports fan, but I always find myself rooting for the Dodgers when it’s baseball season and the Arizona Cardinals when it’s football season. 

Favorite Food: Sushi, Italian and Mexican 

Pets: An adopted Chihuahua named Emily, a miniature Poodle named Lucy & a Basenji named Hawkeye. Together they are quite the pack!
