If you would like to take a break and have fun, what is it that you would want to do?
What I do for a living is what most people would like to do for fun! Singing and radio :)! I love travelling with my husband, so that’s what I would do if I get a break. We recently took a break and holidayed in London.
Radio Jockeying is a lot about having an infectious positive spirit. What does it take to remain so upbeat?
Your basic personality needs to be positive and energetic. Radio jockeying is so much a reflection of your true self, that you can’t really put on a happy voice if you are not feeling good inside.
Singing, RJ-ing, dubbing and writing – which of these roles gives you the real high?
Singing and radio. The ultimate high is performing on stage though!
