John is a 2004 graduate of the New England Institute
of Art in Brookline, Mass and originally started at WATD in
the summer of 2003 as an intern for Cathy Dee. After that,
John interned at various stations in the Boston area until
he was hired by the Talking Information Center shortly after
graduation thanks to a recommendation from WATD.
The Talking Information is a Radio Reading Service
that broadcasts newspapers, magazines, books and more twenty-four
hours a day, seven days a week, to visually-impaired listeners
throughout Massachusetts. They broadcast over WATD's sub-carrier
and their offices are located in the WATD building.
While at the TIC, he was hired by WATD as their
Webmaster and Assistant Music Director. His responsibilities
at WATD include everything from creating and updating station
websites and updating WATD’s extensive music library
to production and even working on-air as a fill-in DJ when
needed. He is also WATD's Public Service Director. John still
works at TIC on weekday mornings and then makes his way up
to WATD in the afternoon. To contact John, you can email him
