Emily Harlan

Sports reporter and on-air host Emily Harlan joins KBAY & KKDV (Bay Country)/San Jose for middays, effective May 19. She becomes the Alpha Media outlet's first local personality six weeks after launching its Country format. Harlan, a Southern California Native, is also the in-arena and digital media host for the San Jose Sharks, a post she'll continue to hold. Previously, she was a host and reporter for FOX Sports in San Diego, covering the Anaheim Ducks, San Diego Padres and San Diego Gulls.

Market Manager David Drutz said, "Emily is a natural fit for the big plans we have for Bay Country, and I'm incredibly excited for Country music fans throughout the Bay Area to get to know her. There's no question the Bay Country audience will think as highly of Emily as we do."

Harlan added, "I could not be more thrilled and proud to be joining the incredible team at Alpha Media. As a big fan of Country music, it's a dream come true to take on this new role with Bay Country right here in San Jose. I'm looking forward to connecting with Country music fans all over the Bay area."
