KOIN in Portland has a new General Manager.

KTVT (Dallas) News Director Adrienne Roark is moving up the broadcast food chain and getting her first shot in the GM chair.

Before coming to Dallas, Roark was the ND at WFOR in Miami.

Here is the internal memo that was sent to the staff and obtained by FTVLive:

Dear KOIN 6 team,

I am pleased to announce that Adrienne Roark has been named the station's new President and General Manager, effectiveJune 23, 2014. A press release announcing her appointment will go out Monday morning. 

Adrienne brings over 20 years of television industry experience to the position, the last decade of which were spent overseeing news departments in some of the largest markets in the country. Most recently, she served as Vice President and News Director at KTVT-TV, the local CBS affiliate in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX.  

With your recent brand launch, great things are happening at KOIN and Adrienne is an ideal choice to lead the station forward. 

Adrienne, her husband Dave and their two sons, Alex and Stephen, are excited to move to Portland. She will be visiting the station on Thursday, May 29 to meet all of you. 

Best regards,
