Hey, I’m Julie, your weekend girl here at WBZD! Usually you can catch me at the front desk of the radio station Monday through Friday, but I picked up a few weekend shifts too, so it’s like I never stop working, haha. I was born and raised in Lewisburg, the “real BURG” as we like to call, where my mom also grew up (my dad is a Billtown native), and am here to stay. There is just so much to do and beautiful places to explore here in the Susquehanna Valley. Heck, I’m still discovering new places every day and if you ever have any suggestions, I’d love to hear from you too. Just call me up: 570-327-9331. When I’m not at the radio station, I enjoy spending time with family, friends, and my boyfriend, roller skating, and travelling all around, especially to the beach and even Italy. Florence, I will be back for you one day.
Like everyone else, music is my life. I was involved with band, choir, and musical all through High School and even in college. I’m a 2018 graduate of Susquehanna University, where I worked at their college radio station and got bit by the “radio bug.” From there on, I got my first radio gig in Selinsgrove, PA and learned it all: traffic, sales, promotions, productions, and on-air. Call me the Jack or Jill of all trades, I guess. I finally found my way up the mountain to Backyard Broadcasting and couldn’t be happier!
You can catch me on WBZD every Saturday from 10am-3pm and Sunday from 12pm-3pm. Get ready to party with me every weekend! I’ve got all your favorite classic hits from the 70’s and 80’s, your crazy fun holiday for the day as well, and just a ton of stuff going on in your backyard. I can’t wait for you to tune in!
– Julie
