Hey, it’s Sonic.
Born in California, polished in the Midwest, and currently holding it down on Chicago’s airwaves. I moved to Chicago in 2018, this is home now. Everyone that has welcomed me to the city with open arms, I appreciate you more than you know. Proud to live here. I started this whole thing as a radio intern in San Diego and worked my way up the old-school way — hustle, lots of late nights — to becoming an on-air host with over 15 years in the game.
These days, I’m all about blending radio with culture, digital, and moments that actually live beyond the speakers. Video content, social, street energy — if it moves fast and feels real, I’m in.
Fun facts:
• I once worked for Michael Jackson back in the day (hold the jokes ).
• I currently hold two world records — casually.
• I’m Japanese, Irish, and Scottish, if you were wondering.
When I’m not on the radio, I’m eating and exploring the city, golfing, or DJ'ing on the side as DJ Minimum Wage, my alter ego. Check out #SpooninWithSonic it's my food segment.
