A true Central Illinois native, CJ always knew radio was where she belonged—especially right here in Peoria. That spark was lit early, listening to Gary & Donna on KZ93, and it never burned out. She studied Radio & Television Broadcasting at Illinois Central College and loved every minute of it.

CJ jumped into the industry while still in school, landing at WMBD-TV as a Floor Director for The Morning Mix. From there, she made her way to WMBD-AM, where she spent more than a decade behind the scenes producing talk radio and deepening her passion for the craft. Then it was time to step into the spotlight. After a fun run at a Classic Country station, CJ found her home on Mix 106.9.

You can catch CJ on the air Monday through Saturday from 12 Noon-6pm, bringing the music and good vibes to your day.

Off the air, CJ lives in Dunlap with her husband, daughter, and four very over-friendly puppies.
