I started in sales at KAYL in 1987 and became Station manager 2001. I like to cook as long as I don’t have to do dishes. I enjoy watching sporting events and the World Series of Poker...I don’t consider it a sporting event even though it is on ESPN. I have always wanted to be on the USA Olympic Curling team. I like to golf, fish (especially ice fish) even though winter is my least favorite season.
I'm Jeremy Riesenberg, marketing consultant at Storm Lake Radio. I've been a member of the team here since November of 2009. Prior experiences include various newspaper and magazine positions, event planning, public relations and even telemarketing. I guess it's fair to say if you consider it media, I've dabbled in it at some point professionally. I am a 2001 graduate of Manson-Northwest Webster High School, and have taken a variety of college courses at Iowa Central Community College and Buena Vista University. While in High School, I spent a handful of years racing dirtbikes professionally on the National Arenacross Tour, where I was awarded the Most Determined Rider award after the 1999-2000 season. I live in Palmer with my wife, Melissa, and our two boys, Elijah and Ryder. In my spare time, I enjoy watching New York Giants and Iowa Hawkeyes football, golfing, and any excuse to get outside with my family. I also enjoy being an active part of the communities that I serve. I am proud to advocate and fundraise yearly for Autism Speaks, a cause that is near and dear to my heart with my son Elijah, who was diagnosed with Autism in the spring of 2010.
