Phathead, originally from Rockaway Beach, has been in Long Island radio since 1995 and his college days at WRHU/Hofstra University.  His professional radio experience began in 1997 with an internship on “The Howard Stern Show” at K-Rock.  He then moved on to Party 105 from 1998-2002 as Midday host, Afternoon Drive host, Promotions Coordinator, and eventually Program Director.  The end of 2002 through February of 2004 was spent at WBLI doing fill-ins and weekends.  Phathead was very happy to join the WMJC staff as the Assistant Promotion Director and weekend/fill-in DJ early in 2004... and since mid-December 2004, he is your wake-up host of "The Most Music Morning Show." He was Promotions Director through 2005, and is now WMJC's Production Coordinator!  At WMJC, he re-joins a lot of the friends he made while working at Party.  If you see Phathead, don’t be shy, give his bald head a good rub.  HE LIKES THAT!!!  By the way, there are way too many people to thank in his life... so, thanks to mom and dad, and everyone else, you know who you are (insert music to get me off the stage here), I'd like to thank you for everything.

In February 2007, Phathead married his wife, Dana, and in January 2008, they welcomed their first child, Lia Rose!
