All That Jazz
Jazz Williams is a Michigan State Spartan with progressive experience in broadcast media, advertising and film production.
She started as an intern at Power 96.5 WQHH-FM in Lansing Michigan and quickly made a name for herself as radio personality 'Jazzy T'.
Following three years of production experience in Hollywood, CA she returned to Michigan and emerged as a key player in her state's movie industry boom.
Doing business as JR Galactic LLC, Jazzy and her husband supported filmmakers with casting, logistics and training. They also produced and pitched show concepts to cable show runners.
Once the Michigan film incentive bubble burst, Jazzy T landed in Buffalo, New York, where she reenergized afternoon radio at WBLK-FM and WUFO-AM.
In 2015, Jazzy T competed on TBS as a contestant on Funny or Die Presents: America’s Next Weatherman.
The next year she was landed a talent/producer contract with News10NBC in Rochester, NY.
Jazzy T currently hosts afternoons on 103.9 WDKX-FM.
