Name: Jamel Hardtman Sign: Virgo AKA: J Name of Show: Hott From the Streets Time: Sundays 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM Best Known for: Along with expereince gained overseas, my ability to connect with people (mostly young adults) is something that I feel is one of my greatest assets. Personal Information: I graduated with two Associated in Science Degrees in both Computerized Business Management Technology and Video & Radio Production Technology, as well as a bachelor of Science Degree in Business Management Technology.
I first wanted to get into radio after I graduated from high school. DJ Rodigan invited me up to his station one afternoon and I chilled with him for a bit in the studio.
After realizing that opportunities in Bermuda where limited in communications I decided against pursing a degree in radio. Then when Hott 107.5 FM came along I saw an opportunity. I picked up an additional major which was Video & Radio production. I then went on to work for Radio Disney as a promotions assistant and DJ before working for then Hall Communications (Rhode Island) as a morning show producer for the country music station. Along with my work experience, I also held a position as President (station manager) of Tech Radio, which was the radio club at my school.
In February 2007 I returned to Bermuda and was hired as the Sales Manager/Programming Coordinator for Inter-Island Communications Ltd. Along with those positions they offered me the chance to host a talk shouw called "Hott from the Streets" which is marketed to young adults and teens.
