Heather is a wife of 27 years, mom to 2 college aged daughters and 1 German exchange daughter- all of whom were in dance or on the high school dance team! #dancemom and mom to a GINORMOUS yellow lab.
Originally from SLC, Utah, Heather and her husband moved to Houston, TX in 1998 where they lived for 10 amazing, sun-&-Chick-fil-A-filled years! In 2008 they moved to Seattle, WA for her husband's dream job. They loved the Seattle area and raising their kids in a culturally diverse area, but the lack of sun after 15 years was enough. So, they built a house and moved to fabulous Las Vegas!
Heather has worked as an administrative assistant for Microsoft, an office manager, served on numerous PTSA Boards and Dance Booster Club Boards, holding various positions including President and Treasurer. Seeing a need in her area she opened a screen-printing t-shirt business in 2018. When she knew they were going to be moving sold the business at the end of 2022.
After settling into her home in Las Vegas, Heather has become a travel planner with Goldgell Getaways.
Heather enjoys crafting of all kinds, decorating, movies, concerts, travel, Disney, and spending time with her family.
Shannon Smith is someone who enjoys wearing many hats! First and foremost, she’s a proud wife and mother. She has a large extended family! She’s also a veteran cosmetologist, who studied for years to become an expert in hair color. For several decades, Shannon has focused on blondes of every shade and exotic, fashion colors like neon pink, neon green and blue. Thanks to her passion for crazy hair colors, it didn’t take long for her client and fan base to explode! Shannon’s popularity became so great, that at a young age, she was able to add “Business Owner” to her growing list of accomplishments by opening her own salon!
Originally from Salt Lake City Utah, Shannon now calls Las Vegas home and is married to popular media personality & voice actor Jimmy Chunga. Together, they have one son named Chandler, who like is dad, works in showbusiness as an award-winning media personality, director of photography and editor. In 2014, Shannon, and her family made the choice to change career paths and start an independent media and podcast company called Ronin Media.
While Shannon is highly creative and an artist in her own right, she’s very much an introvert who suffers from horrible stage fright! Because of this, she’s historically been more than happy to work behind the scenes at Ronin Media as the company’s Director of Finance, leaving the crazy and intense public responsibilities for her husband and son, Chunga and Chandler who, along with Gregg Paschall and Chris Tew, host the highly rated and long running Radio Ronin podcast.
Recently, Shannon was convinced by her long-time friend, and Las Vegas neighbor Heather Snow to do a podcast of their own called ‘A Pair of Queens”. Shannon’s not shy about the fact that she’s, well... Shy! “This is a huge step for me! I’m terrified of microphones, and public attention! I honestly can’t see myself doing something like this with anyone other than Heather! She’s much more comfortable doing this sort of thing than I am!”
Heather and Shannon are a bit of an odd couple that have created a fun, female centric podcast which focuses on Las Vegas, pop-culture, travel, fashion, women's issues, and the challenges of juggling work and family!
In her free time, Shannon is self-described “gym rat”, who loves fashion (especially neon gym clothes!) binging Netflix, going to Disneyland and collecting all things Disney! She also obsessed with her 3 rescue cats and tending to all of her flowers!
