Get to know Jackie...
Rock ‘n’ roll pulses through my veins! My journey in radio kicked off at the iconic WSOU, Seton Hall’s legendary metal station, where my passion for the genre ignited. I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with rock luminaries such as Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols, Rob Zombie, Dave Navarro and Henry Rollins and more. Along this wild ride, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to sit down with many of my musical heroes, weaving their stories into the fabric of my radio narrative. Now, you can catch the essence of my rock journey Saturday nights on The X! Tune in to experience the magic and power of rock ‘n’ roll that fuels my every heartbeat.
