Welcome to my page! Is this the part where I have to tell you something interesting about me? Here it goes…my college radio experience at Monmouth University opened the door to 94.3 The Point, where you’ll hear me on the air weekends (Saturday/Sunday 10a-3p). During the week, I teach Communication courses at Middlesex County College and run the campus radio station. Because I don’t sleep, I also keep myself busy as a realtor with the family business A.J. Dell’Omo, Inc., Realtors. I am into the environment, need to live near a beach, love dogs and I’m part of a group called “Save the Manuals” because driving an automatic vehicle is NOT driving! Cooking for my friends and enjoying good conversation is how I like to spend my time when I’m not reading biographies about interesting people. I find their life journeys fascinating. Trust me, there’s more…but that’s it for now. Hit up my Facebook page, Twitter, and Instagram and I���ll keep you posted on community issues and events, all things entertainment, and the occasional thought-provoking blog post. Did that count as interesting?
