About Franny

• I fell in love with music and people early on, recording pretend radio shows on cassette tapes in my bedroom as a kid.
• In high school, I joined the radio station, and in college, I landed an internship that turned into my first job in radio.
• A year into that job, someone asked if I wanted to be on air—I said “yes,” and that moment launched my 12-year run as a radio host.
• Burnt out and searching for new purpose, I left radio and went back to school to become a licensed therapist.
• When I moved from Washington, D.C., to Seattle, Washington, I swore I was done with radio unless a place like KEXP called—and eventually, they did.
• At KEXP, I found my perfect fit, blending my therapy skills with my radio experience to support DJs behind the scenes.
