Amanda Wall

I have been producing radio programs for the Michigan Talk Network since I was 18 years old. A 2004 graduate of Holt High School, I attended Michigan State University, majoring in Deaf Education. I love learning new languages and about new cultures. Golfing is one of my favorite things to do, but my short game needs a little work. If I am not at the radio station or on the golf course you will most likely find me at a country music concert with my very best friends (Rachel, Katelyn, and my mom). Traveling the state is something I do often, if you see me around say hello.
