I've been a part of Cleveland broadcasting for 40 years. I started as an intern at WSUM in Parma in the late 70's, later worked with WJW AM 850 from '83 to '85 as a board operator and sometimes on air production. I worked in Television at WUAB/ WOIO for 35 plus years starting in 1985 and ending in 2020. I did master/ satellite control work there. Currently I have a home business recording professional voice overs. It is called "DK's Voice Overs".
I did mobile DJ work for bars, private parties, weddings etc. for many years. 
Have been hosting radio shows on WBWC 88.3 FM in Berea (Baldwin Wallace) since 1994. I am a 2013 WBWC Hall of fame inductee as voted in by the students at the station.
I currently host and have produced the "Island Time Radio" show since 2000. A three hour trop rock music show which also features interviews and call in segments. The show has been multi-nominated for "Trop rock radio show of the year" in the Trop Rock Music Association awards. The show won the award in 2014.
