Julezz Castanon exits middays at KKFR-FM (Power 98.3 & 96.1)/Phoenix after five years with the station. She's 23 and joined the Riviera Rhythmic CHR outlet straight out of high school, working in various positions including time as a morning co-host.

In a post on Facebook, she wrote, "With injustices going on around the world it has hit home, and I've decided to walk away to preserve my relationship with my familia at Power 98.3. I'm super grateful to have been able to kick off my radio career at the station that I used to listen to as a kid. To all my listeners and those who have followed my radio craziness on here for over 5 years... this ain't it."
