After graduating from Canterbury High School in 2015, Jacob Rockey embarked on an unconventional journey that would eventually lead him to a career in public radio in the town of Marfa, west Texas, population 1,531. When WBOI’s Julia Meek learned that Rockey was heading back this way for a visit, she invited him into the studio to discuss how his passion has driven his profession, as well as his lifestyle, and what he’s learned along the way.
