101.9 KINK-FM/Portland Announces New Lineup


Alpha Media Portland, OR announced a new show lineup on AAA KINK-FM, effective immediately. The lineup is intended to reflect and enhance KINK's more progressive music stance. Corey and Mitch will air from 5:30-10am, followed by Jared Aman from 10am-3pm, Sean Demery from 3-7pm, Jeff Allen from 7-12midnight and Shauna Steele from midnight-5:30am.

"We are proud to have the passion, creativity and unique talent of these outstanding personalities on 101.9 KINK," said Lisa Decker, Alpha Media, Portland MM. "KINK has a rich heritage and deep community roots and with our new lineup it will enhance the KINK brand."

Corey Foley was born and raised in Florida. It all started in St. Petersburg, FL, at Wild 94.1. She then moved to Minneapolis, MN, to work with Dave Ryan at KDWB. Corey then headed to San Francisco where she worked at 95.7 The Wolf with Scott Mahalick. Her next move was to the wild west, a.k.a. Houston, to be on 100.3 The Bull. The west coast has now called her back and she can't wait to explore everything that is Portland and KINK.

Mitch Elliott is a native of Atlanta who began his radio career at WRAS. From there he moved to WFOX where he would learn the craft while working in positions ranging from overnights to Assistant Program Director and Afternoon Drive. After nearly 16 years at WFOX, the Northwest was beckoning to Mitch for a change. He spent three years doing mornings at KLSY in Seattle before finding his forever home in Portland, OR. After a very successful 10-year run as the afternoon drive-time show at KRSK and two nominations and one win for Best Radio Show in Portland (as voted on by readers of Willamette Week), Mitch is thrilled to have found his new radio home on 101.9 KINK.

Sean Demery is a seasoned media veteran with years of programming, on-air and consulting experience who's been around the block more than once on squeaky rollerblades. His experience includes stations such as; WNNX/Atlanta, KITS/San Francisco, KMTT/Seattle, KXRK & KLRZ/Salt Lake City, WYMS/Milwaukee, and KGGI/Riverside & San Bernardino to name a few. In addition to hosting afternoon drive, Demery is also the Program Director of KINK.
