More than a century after its sinking, the RMS Titanic (which was affectionately called, “Unsinkable”), continues to captivate the hearts and minds of many. According to researchers, the fascination with the Titanic is a result of human interest in the passenger’s stories and the unique circumstances surrounding the shipwreck.

On April 14, 1912, The RMS Titanic, collided with an iceberg during its maiden voyage and eventually sank less than 3 hours in the wee hours of the morning on April 15, 1912. Approximately 1500 people died of the more than 2200 that were on board.

Throughout the years, the Titanic has inspired songs, musicals, films, books, video games, exhibits, and decades of exploration and research. The story of the Titanic has also inspired many to press on even after disaster strikes.

On Morning Energy we are going to spend time exploring the history of the RMS Titanic and also ways that we can remain unsinkable as it relates to various areas of our lives .

I found out about WMNF through an outreach table that was set up at Sweet Water Organic Farm during my first visit there in 2012.

I had never really heard much about community radio stations at that time and became extremely intrigued as to why a radio station would have an interest in attending and/or hosting events in the community.

As I began to learn more from the Volunteer Coordinator at that time, I decided that the station would be a great fit for me in light of my background in communications and my ongoing interest in helping others.

One of my first volunteer assignments at WMNF was community outreach. I thought what better way to reach out to the community than in the same manner that I felt WMNF had reached out to me. After about a year of doing out reach service, I decided to try my hands at voicing promos/drops since I still had a passion for the arts. I also began helping out during the marathons.

Consequently, while volunteering during one of the marathons, I was asked by a former host to consider being one of their co-host because he liked my personality and the sound of my voice. I had never done formal radio work before, although I DID have a communication degree, however, my interest while attending college at that time was more towards television than radio. Nonetheless, I agreed. In addition to being a co-host on that show (The Damn Jams )(Hip-Hop) , other shows that I have co-hosted on while volunteering at WMNF are: Thee Righteous Temple of Hip Hop (Christian Hip Hop), The Early Bird Wake Up Show (Country), Blues With A Groove (Blues ), Mellow Music Encounters ( R& B and Blues) and Kingston 12 (Reggae). However, In February 2014,

I was thankfully given the opportunity to host and produce my own show.... MORNING ENERGY..... and it has truly been an AMAZING experience and journey for which I will always be thankful for!!!
