Celeste bought her first BLM T-shirt at Levinsky's in Biddeford and listened to the Blimp on her boombox while catching rays by the lifeguard stand in OOB. She became a D.J. with WBLM in August 1989, and she loves every day of hanging out with the station's hilarious, salty listeners. She feels blessed to have such great friends, and her two daughters and husband, Mark, are the best people she knows. She also loves to travel together and enjoy sushi for Family Date Night.
