Hello Everyone!
My name is Dan and I am 18 years old. I recently graduated high school and I have been taking this semester off to travel the world before I go to college! I am so excited to start my internship here at Eastside FM.
I grew up in San Francisco California, but was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, and I have moved from place to place quite a bit in my lifetime. Radio is intriguing to me because I have always been a loquacious person, and getting my voice heard and meeting other interesting people in media is something I cannot wait to do.
Travel is something that has always piqued my interest, and my last few months traveling the world have been better than I could ever imagine. Before Sydney, I was in Thailand volunteering, planting, building greenhouses, and working at schools which were eye opening experiences. I just got to Sydney, but so far I love all it has to offer.
Some interests of mine are sports and everything involving nature. I have learned lots through sports, and have had some amazing experiences hiking, diving, and biking through nature.
Music is also important to me. I love all music, from modern rap and hip-hop to older rock and jazz. Some modern artists I enjoy are J Cole and Kendrick Lamar, and on the older side, artists like Frank Sinatra and The Eagles. The fact that I can put my love for music together with my love for communication and creating content is one that attracted me towards working for this station. It is important for me to get my voice heard, and I also just love to commune with others.
I can’t wait to start here at Eastside FM, and learn things about the media and also about myself through the work I do here.
