Thirteen-year Nebraskan veteran air personality Chi takes afternoons on KQKQ-FM (Sweet 98.5)/Omaha. She'll host the PM drive show on the NRG Media Hot AC outlet from 3-7pm, starting Monday, February 17. In addition, Chi will also serve as the Music Director for sister Rhythmic CHR KOPW-FM (Power 106.9), and handle Power on-air duties from 1-3pm.

Chi started her career doing afternoons at KFRX, and producing for a two-time Marconi winner "Problems & Solutions" at KFOR. In 2014, she moved to Omaha to do middays on KQCH and later became Music Director.

Chi stated, "Radio is my passion and NRG Media is giving me an opportunity to grow my roots further into Omaha. It's like a dream come true."

General Manager Mark Shecterle added, "We could not be more pleased with the addition of Chi to the NRG family. Chi has a great reputation in the market with both listeners and clients. She will be a great addition to our team and we are blessed to have her."

The duo's Program Director Jay Michaels said, "Chi will round out the team on SWEET 98.5, and will be a great addition to our POWER on-air staff. Chi is well known in the record industry and very well respected. We are thrilled to have her join our team."
