Subject: Announcement
Earlier this week, I requested a meeting in Montgomery with Jeff and Paul to discuss the future of WXIX. During the meetings, it was decided that it's time for new leadership at the station. As such, my last day at WXIX will be Friday, February 27. I've enjoyed my six plus years at the station and of the many accomplishments we have achieved as a team, I am most proud of the way we have used the power of FOX19 to impact our community with programs like Think Pink, St. Jude and the Backpack Challenge. I look forward to thanking each of you over the next three weeks for all you've done for the station during my tenure. Julie and I look forward to planning the next chapter in our life.
