Another native Tennessean (sorry, Casey, you aren’t special anymore), Mel Summitt was born and raised under the shadow of the Great Smoky Mountains in East Tennessee. There, Mel launched her radio career at UTK as a high school student. In 2015 they moved to Middle Tennessee to attend MTSU and became the Assistant General Manager of their student station, WMTS. In 2018 she joined the Lightning 100 crew as an intern and discovered her new favorite hobby, “running around at Live On The Green.” Now she drags herself out of bed before sunrise every weekday to co-host Lightning in the Morning.
When they aren’t at the station they’re probably working a show at one of the independent venues in town, crying over how cute their cat is, or taking a quick power nap (unless it’s Thursday night, in which case she’s definitely watching Law & Order: SVU).
