Amber Lee, Operations Manager for Cumulus Media Topeka, has exited the company after nearly twelve years as her position was eliminated. Lee joined Cumulus Topeka in January 2014, overseeing the six-station cluster that includes Majic 107.7 KMAJ-FM, V100, 99.3 The Eagle, 102.9 Cat Country, AM 1440 KMAJ and AM 1490 KTOP.

Lee also served as Program Director and afternoon host for Majic 107.7. Earlier this year, she expanded her responsibilities by adding PD duties for CHR 107.3 The Vibe (KMJK) in Kansas City.

Her previous stints included serving as Operations Manager for Great Plains Media's Lawrence, KS cluster from 2009 to 2013, and on-air roles at KMXL and KSYN Joplin, MO; KAWO Boise, ID; and stations in the Twin Cities.

In a social media post, Lee confirmed her departure and noted the longevity of her tenure amid a rapidly shifting industry. "After 11 years and 11 months, my position with Cumulus was eliminated," she wrote. "Reaching almost 12 years with a single employer is a remarkable feat in media. If you've listened, commented on social, came to an event, played a contest, or even waved at me while I was driving that huge van, thank you for engaging. The state of radio today can be hard to love. What's next for me? TBD."
