WHO'S TALKING ON KRTZ?

Jonathon Steele (weekdays 8am-1pm)

Christina Cooper Christina Cooper
Christina started like most of us start, at ground level, as a part-time employee of a nationally-distributed alternative radio format back in 2003.  She now spends time with you on KRTZ as a pleasant and upbeat personality.  Before radio, she was involved in community theatre as an actress and a director, and has also sat on the board of directors for an experimental theatre company.


Kelly Turner Kelly Turner (The Drive, weekdays 4pm-7pm)
Kelly Turner hosts The Drive. Each Saturday evening from 7, Kelly hosts the Awesome 80s Weekend.  And, of course, Kelly presents weather on KRTZ along with news on KRTZ and sister stations Kiss Country (KISZ), KENN and KVFC.  Kelly started in the radio business when he was 16 as an overnight DJ (oddly, on KRTZ, when it was a country station).  Kelly has worked for both commercial and public radio.  Born in Utah, Kelly loves to return to the redrocks of southern Utah whenever possible.  He enjoys spending time with his wife, Bethany, his sons, Ethan (7) and Noah (4)  and Sombra, the family's cat (16).  Kelly's ideal vacation would be roaming the streets of London and exploring the English countryside.  You can e-mail Kelly HERE.

Cammie Carlisle Cammie Carlisle (weekdays 11pm-4am)
Cammie got her start in radio while attending college in Enid, Oklahoma.  Her career has taken her into traffic reporting for radio and TV stations and into the realm of satellite radio networks.  In her spare time, she rocks out with her band, "Goodbye Sunday".  In case that's not enough, she owns her own promotion company and sets up concert events that benefit charities.

Rashke (weekdays 1pm-4pm)

I live with my brilliant husband, whom I met on-line. For our first date, he joined me on the air and we had a blast!  I’d rather ride a bike than drive (to reduce my carbon footprint and my behind from sitting 5 hours a day).  I also like to walk and listen to books on tape. I have the best cat in the world; Mr. Wilson, who I got at the shelter the day before they were going to put him down. Finally, I absolutely love “all things volunteer” one of my favorites is www.soupkitcheninc.comCheck them out.

Desiree Desiree Burnham (KRTZ's Prize & Promotions Diva)
Desiree has become the intra-office battering ram because of her intense desire to follow orders and fall in stride-for-stride step with the real world.  Desiree was born in New York and then went bi-coastal, moving to California.  She's married to Jeff (bless his heart) and has three other boys in da house (bless their hearts).  You can e-mail Desiree HERE.
