“Joining the CFUR board has been a real joy not only because of the rad people and rad shows, but because it makes me feel like part of this community radio station's unique and awesome community.

‘I graduated from UNBC with a bachelor of science in psychology and a minor in English. I've been involved with CFURadio since Summer 2018. I believe campus radio stations are an essential part of university life but also the greater city community as a whole. My favourite genre of music is rock and my favourite band is the Strokes. I look forward to contributing towards CFURadio's future!’
