The MIW Mentoring and Inspiring Women in Minnesota program, a partnership between Mentoring and Inspiring Women in Radio and the Minnesota Broadcasters Association, has announced Jessica Williams as their 2023 mentee. Celebrating its second year, this program provides ongoing coaching and guidance to women radio broadcasters in the state of Minnesota. Minnesota State Broadcasters, led by President Wendy Paulson, was the first state association to partner with MIW, launching the program in 2022.

Jessica Williams started her radio journey in 2017 as a parttime talent. Williams, aka, "Jessica on the Radio" is currently a host on KYBA-FM (Y-105) in Rochester, MN, a National AC Host weekdays from 3-7pm for Townsquare Media, and the Community Outreach Director for the Rochester/Preston Minnesota market.

MIW Board President Ruth Presslaff said, "Once is great and twice is twice as good. We were so fortunate to work with not only Wendy Paulson and the MBA, but also Ava LaRue, our first mentee. We're very excited to now welcome Jessica to the fold and continue this great program."

Minnesota Broadcasters Association President Wendy Paulson commented, "The Minnesota Broadcasters Association is thrilled to continue the MIW Minnesota mentorship with Jessica as our 2023 mentee. She is an outstanding talent and is motivated and excited to continue her growth in the radio industry."
