"Kamu is a compassionate individual with the perfect talents to lead our team," said Pacific Media Group Chief Revenue Officer and Regional Vice President Joshua Mednick. "Our decision to promote from within is reflective of Pacific Media Group's commitment to the dedicated individuals that genuinely care about the success of our business partners. Being a local media company, all our people are right here in the communities we serve. Kamu has been a part of the fabric of the Oahu media market for many years and his accomplishments have earned him this appointment."

As with many businesses in Hawaii, over time, the people you work with become family and I have been blessed to have found many additional sisters and brothers," added Kanekoa. "We are in an amazing position to service Oahu with entertaining live and local morning shows; experienced, responsive and creative programming, production, traffic, business and sales departments. Together we create a synergy that is palpable, and I see our stations and partners growing to even greater heights."
