Everyday brings me a new experience and I just hope that I don't mess it up! One of the first things that I did when I walked on the then Moorhead State University campus...a hundred years ago...was go to the radio station. However I was also involved in the theatre (my very first love) and radio soon became pushed to the back burner...and forgotten. When Zach Swanson asked me to do color for Roseau Rams volleyball this past season, I realized how much I still enjoyed being on air...and I thank Joe everyday for letting me be a "Rock Star" on WiLD 102.

Zach Swanson ( zach@wild102fm.com ) Where to start, where to start? Well, I was born and raised in the Twin Cities, south suburbs to be exact. After high school, I attended South Dakota State University in Brookings, and couldn ’t really find my place. After returning home, I found that radio was my calling! I attended Brown College and while attending class I covered sports online with the Minnesota Sports Broadcast Network.
