Philip Teresi and Skip Echeverria

Cumulus Media's KMJ-AM (Newstalk 580) and KMJ-FM/Fresno are teaming "Skip" Echeverria with Philip Teresi for afternoon drive, weekdays from 2-6 pm. Skip joins KMJ after hosting mornings on crosstown Alternative KFRR-FM (New Rock 104.1 FM) for the past 9 years. She has a BS in Communications and a Masters degree in Counseling & Family Therapy from Fresno State University.

"You'd be hard pressed to find someone in this valley that doesn't know the legend that is KMJ. When I started radio in 2001, I didn't anticipate this opportunity. But having been born and raised in Fresno, a graduate from Fresno State, and having chosen to raise my own family and base my mental health practice locally, I have a vested interest in the continued success of my community. I absolutely love this valley and its people. I'm honored and excited to join the KMJ team and am looking forward to conversations about topics that are important to us," said Echeverria,

"We are very excited to welcome Skip to the KMJ family. She's already established herself as a star in our market, which means KMJ's future just got a lot brighter," added Cumulus Media/Fresno Vice President/General Manager Patty Hixson.

"I'm elated to be a part of the next step at KMJ. Skip makes a brilliant, powerful addition to the station. Bringing Skip to KMJ benefits the audience, the sponsors, and the station as a whole," said Teresi.
