Pillar Media elevates Colorado natives Tony Valdez (Tony V) and Becky Ross as Program Directors for KFCO (The New Flo 107.1) and KPOF-AM, respectively. In this capacity, both Valdez and Ross will guide their station's sound, content and identity. Since KFCO's format flip in April, Valdez's experience with and passion for the Denver community has shaped the station's direction.

Valdez said, "Through positive music, we unite the Denver community with faith, love and optimism. I am honored to be a part of building a culture that is driven by God's love. I look forward to my journey with Pillar Media while uplifting hearts and inspiring souls."

Ross has served at KPOF for 20 years and offers extensive understanding of the station's audience and its legacy in Denver's Christian community.

Ross said, "It is such a privilege to continue the legacy of Christian broadcasting at KPOF, which has faithfully served the Denver Metro area for 96 years. It's incredible to watch God work through Pillar Media in our uplifting ministry in media."

Pillar Media Brand Director Matt Stockman adds, "Both Becky and Tony step into their programming roles with a wealth of experience in their respective formats, and a deep understanding of the Denver community. Both are the right person to take their stations to a new level of impact."
