While attending CSUN, I also hosted a very popular bi-weekly radio progressive rock radio program, Lost in the Ozone, on KCSN.

Then in 1984, following the release of the Apple Macintosh, I assisted numerous Hollywood production facilities in applying the Mac to the post-production process. Now, I am an accomplished computer consultant in Ventura County, and I host a "different" kind of radio show, every Saturday on AM 1520 KVTA, called acomputershow.com.
