D-Rez

D-Rez has been a beloved fixture in the Yakima Valley radio biz in Yakima for over 15 years. He is an enrolled member of the Yakama Nation, and he lives on "the rez." He's also part Nez Perce, Colville, and Blackfeet, with some Filipino mixed in. D-Rez graduated from Wapato High School, Class of '04. Besides being on the radio, you can see him throughout the community either at a pow wow, walking somewhere, on a comedy stage doing stand-up, or waving at you in a parade. He is an entertainer of all sorts.
