Jordan Winders is an Owensboro "transplant". Jordan moved to the Owensboro area 10 years ago from the Ft. Campbell area. Jordan has a passion for music in all forms, and even does a little performing from time to time. He has been around music since he was able to walk and decided to pursue a degree in Music Business from Kentucky Wesleyan College. While there he continued his passion of music, but also discovered new passions: production and radio. After spending about a year at the college radio station he came to WBKR part-time. Jordan also decided to pursue a graduate degree from Full Sail University in Entertainment Business which he completed in 2012. He is now full time with WBKR as the Production Director. When he's not working on production in the studio he can usually be found practicing the latest techniques in music and audio editing, catching a new movie, or watching his favorite football time, the New England Patriots.
