Life happened and I left, recorded an album, and in 2002 I came back to do the morning show. It's been great to see how the station has grown, because I've been part of it since the begin- ning. It's very satisfying to know that I started at the station working for free, and now I'm part of a show that is doing really well. Y':aac I'm part of the baby's birth, so to speak, because the Súper Estrella concept was born in San Jose, Calif., and I used to work with Pato [Entravision Radio VP of programming Néstor Rocha] at a station that had a similar format to Súper Estrella and flipped to Spanish AC.
