I am a Digital Marketing Specialist who has built a career helping others develop their businesses through branding, web design, SEO, multi-media, podcasts and more.

Truth is, I didn't always have aspirations to launch a podcast. That is, until the true story of the Kingman BLEVE chose me!

I created the WE NEED ICE podcast to preserve the true story of the 1973 Kingman, Arizona BLEVE explosion with researched facts, authentic witness accounts, and the utmost respect for the sensitive topic. Not having heard about the incident before creating this podcast, I wanted to deliver a narrative that was educational as well as emotional. To quote some advice I received early on from a Kingman BLEVE witness, "It doesn't need to be over-dramatized. The story is dramatic all on its own."

From the WE NEED ICE podcast, listeners can expect a captivating audio documentary from start to finish. I've fallen in LOVE with this story. You will too.
