About Missy B

Missy Bolden was born and raised in \"The City of Angels.” She transitioned to Columbus, Ohio as a teenager and is proud graduate of East High school and The Ohio State University. After a summer internship with CBS News in New York City, she realized her passion for the entertainment industry.

In efforts to become more marketable in her field, a chance meeting at Radio One Columbus led to a job opportunity in promotions.

L. Hughley Show. Missy also expanded her talents to include blogging, producing on-air promos and commercials spots.

After years of learning many facets of radio, she was able to fulfill her ultimate goal of on-air talent. Her big break came in 2014 when she \"cracked the mic,\" with her on air debut as \"Missy B.\" Currently, she is the newest face of WJYD Joy 107.1 on the weekend. Listen to her Saturday\'s 7-11p (Nights with Missy B) and Sunday\'s 10a-2p (Sunday Brunch with Missy B.)
