Reese
Hi! Thanks for taking the time to get to know me, "Reese"! I'm born and raised in New Orleans and I've lived and traveled other places but I can honestly say that this city is the best place that I have ever called home. After high school, I graduated from University of New Orleans with a B.A. degree in Film, Theater and Communication Arts. I then went on to get my Screenwriting Degree from the University of California at Los Angeles.
Over the last few years I've played many roles at Clear Channel, both behind the scenes and in front of a microphone. I am currently a Producer for Real Talk on Q93 and Sunday Journal right here on 98.5. After many years of hard work and dedication, I am so excited to now become an On-Air Personality.
Growing up, my favorite singers were Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. The only problem was I could never sing their songs in the same key that they were singing because my voice was always deeper. Then I discovered Toni Braxton and T-Boz from TLC, and I was in heaven. They taught me that a deep voice can be sexy and cool and now I wouldn't have it any other way.
I look forward to what the future holds for me, the city of New Orleans and its people. I love what I do and I feel so blessed to be able to fulfill my dreams. I love connecting with listeners and getting to know people's stories and I look forward to getting to know yours too! Oh and one more thing...WHO DAT!
