My Unsung Hero: One On One w/ My Mentor Neke Howse

Neke Howse is the reason I’m working in Baltimore! She’s the first person I called when I was told “we’re moving in a different direction” from my radio job in Pittsburgh.

Let me take it back for a minute: she and I actually met at that station, when I was her intern for her night show at WAMO. I pulled her commercials, got her Chinese food and made her phone calls. She put me to work honey!

If you never worked with Neke Howse, I would say that’s a good and a bad thing. It’s a good thing because you’ve never experienced working with someone who is so passionate about what she does. It’s bad because you really missed out on working with someone who is really passionate about what she does.

Neke was hard on me and for that I’m forever grateful! If it weren’t for her lessons…
