iHeartMedia has added a new voice to its Las Vegas lineup, naming Sammi Tempesta afternoon host and assistant program director at Neon 93.1, effective immediately.
In her new role, Tempesta will host weekdays from 3-7 p.m. and assist with programming strategy. She will report to MoJoe Roberts, senior vice president of iHeartMedia Las Vegas.
“I couldn’t be more excited to join Neon 93.1 and be part of something so fresh, fun and uniquely Vegas. This station has an incredible energy, and I’m beyond grateful for the opportunity to connect with listeners every afternoon. I can’t wait to bring the vibes, the music and a little extra brightness to the city,” says Tempesta.
Roberts said Tempesta’s style aligns with the station’s brand and audience. He pointed to her energy and creativity as key assets for a format built around variety and personality.
Tempesta arrives from KVGS in Las Vegas, where she served as afternoon host and music director. She began her radio career there in 2020 as a part-time board operator. A graduate of University of Nevada Las Vegas, she has quickly risen through the ranks in the local market.
With Tempesta now in afternoons, Neon 93.1 continues to lean into its “Playing Anything, Everything for Vegas” identity while adding a fresh, locally developed voice to its lineup.
