I grew up in Orange County, California into punk rock, surfing and skateboarding. Radio found me through surfing. I started doing surf reports on KIOZ in San Diego while going to Mira Costa College and working at a surf shop in Cardiff by The Sea, CA. After about six years at KIOZ I left for Philadelphia to work with Sarah on WDRE. We did mornings together for only a few months when DRE sold, flipped formats and we were told to find new jobs. I spent the next five years hosting "Sarah and Vinnie" on Alice 97.3 in San Francisco. After taking time off to "get healthy" I hosted mornings on KNRQ in Oregon and now I'm blessed with a second chance to work with Sarah on Alice, back home in San Francisco. Outside of work I enjoy music and going to shows, I exercise daily and eat healthy, play golf and guitar, I read everything, I don't drink or smoke cigs and I still surf and skateboard every chance I get.
