Meruelo Media's KLLI-FM (Cali 93.9)/Los Angeles has a new air talent roster for mornings, beginning September 12. Wakeups from 5-10am are led by Carolina "Caro" Marquez, Mando Fresko and sidekick Jessica Flores. Marquez will co-host the new show with Mando. She previously served as the midday host on Radio Centro's 93.9 Exitos and Mega 96.3, both in Los Angeles, as a producer at LATV and a reporter for MTV3.

Marquez said, "You inspire and awaken the hearts of others by doing what you love. I'm incredibly happy to be doing just that with Cali 93.9."

Fresko moves to Cali from co-owned KPWR where he was an air personality. He said of the move that he's "beyond excited to join the Cali 93.9 family, and I'm honored to continue being a part of Meruelo Media's elite team. I can't wait to talk with our listeners every morning." Mando was recently featured on Forbes' "Get Paid to Be Yourself" about his company Hubwav Media. He's also actively involved in the local community with the newly launched Fresko Foundation.

Flores rounds out the Cali mornings as a sidekick and will also serve as a digital personality. She said, "I have been dreaming about an opportunity like this for years. Cali 93.9 will make a positive cultural impact for the Los Angeles community for years to come." Flores started her radio career with Cali sister station Power 106's Liftoff show featuring Justin Credible, and also served as talent for Radio Disney.

Director of Programming DJ E-Man is "extremely proud of the new Cali Mornings team. This is a station made by LA, for LA."
