"I love Scott [Roddy, Operations Manager and Program Director, 105.1 The Buzz and 99.5 The Wolf] and Kim's vision and know that we can deliver great content that audiences can relate to. I am beyond ecstatic for this opportunity."

Prior to joining Entercom, Luda served as a morning co-host and Promotions Director for Flinn Broadcasting/Memphis. She also previously held an Account Executive role for Clear Channel/Charlotte, NC.

"I've been fortunate to work with some incredible people throughout my career in several New England markets, and am beyond excited to head out west and begin the next chapter with the extremely talented Liz," said Vezzola. "Scott Roddy and Kim Martinez are the real deal and have a great vision for the future in Portland, I look forward to getting out there, getting to work and being a part of that."
