Entravision appoints Michael Christenson as Chief Executive Officer, effective July 1. He previously served as President and Chief Operating Officer of two public software companies, New Relic and CA Technologies, and as an investment banker with Allen & Company and Salomon Brothers. Christenson has also served on the board of a number of high-growth public and private technology companies. He fills the CEO post vacant since the death of Chairman/CEO Walter Ulloa in December.

"We are excited to welcome Mike as Entravision's next CEO," said Entravision Board of Directors Chair Paul A. Zevnik. "Mike is a proven executive with operational and financial expertise and a track record of driving growth through operational execution and strategic acquisitions. We are confident that his skills and experience will help us unlock opportunities to expand our digital, television and audio segments, enhance our offerings and strengthen our competitive position in international markets. We are pleased that Mike will be joining our team to continue the mission that Walter Ulloa pursued in building the Company over many years and with the same core values that Walter instilled in the people of Entravision."

"I am honored to join the team at Entravision," added Christenson. "Entravision is an industry leader with a unique value proposition and an impressive suite of digital marketing services across its global footprint. As a leading global advertising solutions, media and technology company, Entravision is well positioned for continued growth and I look forward to leveraging my expertise and working together with the talented team to reach even greater heights."
