JoJo O’Neal

RADIO PERSONALITY/COMMUNITY ADVOCATE STAR 94.5 - ORLANDO’S ONLY R&B

JoJo O’Neal is a proud Central Floridian born and raised in Deland, Fla. O’Neal studied Radio/Television Broadcasting at the University of Central Florida and has been a full-time radio personality since 1984. She also works part-time in Broadcast Operations as a technical operator at WFTV Channel 9 Orlando, an ABC affiliate.

What’s so amazing about O’Neal’s radio career is that although she has worked at several radio stations with different programming formats (including Kid’s Radio where she hosted a nationwide show), her entire career has been based out of Central Florida.

Known for her fun-loving, playful personality and genuine love for people, O’Neal’s “girl-next-door” on-air delivery has garnered her thousands of not only radio, but also social media fans.

O’Neal has worked as an influencer for clients such as Disney, BET, OWN, Sony Pictures Entertainment, The Tamron Hall Show, Denny’s and more. She’s also a freelance voice actor, lending her vocals to tv and radio commercials, instructional videos, web projects, and more worldwide.

O’Neal believes in staying busy as she completed training and in March of 2022, passed the Florida Real Estate Exam. She is now a licensed real estate associate.

After an asthma diagnosis in 2004, O’Neal created the Let’s Kick Asthma Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit organization that educates, inspires, and supports asthma patients, encouraging them to live healthier lives by exploring ways to control the symptoms.

O’Neal has a history in dance (ballet, jazz, tap, modern, praise), and was a former junior high, high school, and college majorette, and competitive baton twirler. She offers free baton twirling lessons to any young person who’s interested in learning.

In her limited free time, O’Neal enjoys traveling, spending time at the beach, reading, and riding motorcycles.

Spiritually grounded, O’Neal is a commissioned Stephen Minister, trained in Christian caregiving, and draws on her faith to face life’s challenges.
