DJ/On-Air Staff
Dan Duran
I grew up listening to MIX 107.3 as a kid, waking up to Jack & Bert and listening to Loo Katz after school. "I want to work there, Dad!" I said one day. On my birthday when I was 10 years old, I got a card signed by everyone who worked at MIX... I was sold. Now... I get to sign those birthday cards! I interned here summers while I attended Ithaca College in NY. After a trip around the block after school, I came back to the DC area.
I grew up in Bethesda, and live there now. I enjoy cooking (grilling, particularly - I'm a sucker for anything grilled on the Food Network, and Monkeysee.com) and good beer and wines. I grew up a boater... so any free time I have, you'll find me afloat somewhere in the Chesapeake Bay. I'm also a volunteer firefighter, and plan to become an EMT at some point soon.
I'm a big fan of music out of the '80s - Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, REM, and of course my long lost brothers, Duran Duran! I'm also enjoying the new stuff out today, particularly Finger Eleven and Coldplay's newest works, along with staples like Dave Matthews, the Goo Goo Dolls, and Maroon 5.
On TV - and yes, I am a male, with man-card safely packed in my wallet - I watch Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, The Office, Entourage, Chuck, CSI Miami and Hell's Kitchen, among others.
