KJR Assistant Program Director Kevin Shockey has been named the new Program Director of Altitude Sports Radio in Denver.
“I’m leaving a station that I love and going to a new station with talent that I believe in and I can’t wait to work with,” Shockey said in a Facebook post announcing the move. He added that it’s time “for a new challenge and a step up. That also means it is time to step out and take a risk.”
Shockey has been with iHeartMedia in Seattle since August of 2006, ascending to the Assistant Program Director role in 2015. He will fill the seat vacated by Dave Tepper, who became the Program Director of KOA earlier this summer.
His final day at KJR will be Wednesday. He’s expected to start working in Denver on Monday October 10th.
