Chrissy was born and raised in Mechanicville, NY, and have been in radio for 30 years. She has lived and worked on Long Island in the Hamptons, in West Palm Beach, FL, Buffalo, NY, and Portland, ME. Brian and Chrissy have been together for 17 years and love waking up the Capital Region each and every morning. Chrissy moved back to her hometown three years ago where her 12-year-old son Ryan is attending her Alma mater. She married her best friend, Jenn, in August of 2022 and had the most perfect day. The theme of their wedding was based on the Disney movie, "Up". They even have a dog named Freddie after Mr. Fredrickson from the movie. They now have two dogs. The newest member of the family is Willie. He looks like a real-live white teddy bear. Chrissy is a true crime junky and will watch every Law & Order SVU episode over and over again. (Her dad worked on the show for several years and her last name appears on the locker in the squad room in early episodes). She has a very close relationship with her amazing mom, Nancy who is on the show each week messing up song lyrics. She will also fight anyone, anytime, if you say that someone else or a restaurant makes better eggplant than her mom. Chrissy wants to thank the Capital Region for allowing her and Brian to share their personal lives with you each and every morning. They thrive to put a little laughter into your hectic morning each day.
