Meet Willa

Hey its Willa… aka “ skirt wit da dirt” you can just call me Willa though.. I mean we are friends now since you have actually looked at this page….a little about myself... I am a military brat and because my mother is from the Philippines I spent my younger years growing up on the small island of Guam….boy do I miss it… coconut trees everywhere... and I grew up 5 minutes from a beach… are you jealous yet? I know I am haha… so you are probably asking yourself... why the heck is she here?  I had no choice but to move back to the states, it would have been hard living on your own at the age of 13 or 14... my first journey to the United States was at the tender age of either 13 or 14 I believe... and we moved to the St. Louis area…. And I have been stuck here ever since... I had a small stint in Florida working for Disney World... but wanted to complete school so made my way back to Illinois.

Radio… all started with me at the age of 15 or 16 when I started interning for z 1077... a great top radio station in St. Louis… I was hooked ever since then… okay I lied, my love affair with radio started out when I was aloud to use the phone at home… I would call into radio station and request song right after I heard them played… and if they didn’t want to do that for me I would call in and act like I was foreign or something that usually got a laugh…. I started as a intern at 99.7 KISS FM in 2003 a day after my 21st birthday…my plan was to stick with promotions and sales... but I was soon on the air doing part-time shift... and have been doing it ever since.. I love music... and it will always be a big part of my life… an hour doesn’t go by that I am not listening to some music... and I love all genres from Lil Wayne to Yani….. yes I said Yani... don’t hate…  I am also one of those people who know the silly stupid stuff about artist… like their birthdays and what their favorite color is… you would think I would have better things to remember but I don’t… I am one of those people who remember the things that no one ever should… like how many feet are in a mile…. Or some algebraic formula

When I am not working at two different radio stations, I am usually flying on a private jet to different Iocations across the world working on promoting musicians….OOOOHHH WAIT I wish... I am actually working on my graduate degree in Political Science and soon will have another undergraduate degree in Business, and working on a recording something for a future album.  If you want to know more about me check out my MySpace page at www.myspace.com/chemise1982
