    Uh oh, What's Good Radio is going big time as Chris welcomes an NBA champion (and high school classmate) onto the show!

Now in a new role as Adobe's Strategic Development Manager, Karina talks about how her mom and a chance visit to The Oprah Winfrey Show inspired her to embark on her career path, why the referees are the most annoying obstacle in her work, and how the Jesuit motto impacts her life every day!
