In 2003, Worden spent two years as PD for WHFS-FM/Washington, DC, before returning to KROQ-FM in 2005.

"Having Lisa's wealth of programming experience now available to us as a resource, it made logical sense for her to take a much more active role in the day-to-day as the PD of Alt 98.7 and we look forward to tapping into her skills," said Executive VP/West Division Andrew Jeffries. "Her relationships within the industry combined with her knowledge of the format, specifically Los Angeles, will help accelerate the growth, of an already very successful station, into 2018."
