Divello, a 24-year veteran of media sales, rises from her previous post as Director of Sales for the company's co-owned group in Shreveport, LA.

Regional VP/Operations Mark Sullivan said, "Paula has proven to be a strong leader and I'm looking forward to her many successes in Abilene as our new VP/Market Manager. I'm really happy that we have such a talented group of managers within the company and that we are able to promote one of our own."

Divello added, "Thank you to Mary Berner and the Cumulus leadership team for this opportunity. I am enthusiastically looking forward to leading from the front in Abilene, TX. It's a strong cluster with an invested team, in a great market, with tons of potential. I've learned and grown so much with Cumulus, experienced force values and culture -- and how consistently they drive success.
