Kat Makes Some San Diego Magic
• Local Media San Diego announced the appointment of Kat San Andres as Music Director of Rhythmic AC XHRM (Magic 92.5). She will retain her existing position as APD/MD for Top 40 sister XHTZ (Z90).
San Andres joined Z90 in 2004 as morning show intern, and over the past 15 years, she has worked her way up through the ranks to Programming Assistant in 2005. She was later promoted to Music Coordinator, Music Director and eventually, APD.
In making the official announcement, Z90 & Magic 92.5 Supreme Commander™ R Dub! said, “Kat’s passion for the music and dedication to the company is impossible to go unnoticed; she was a shoo-in for this vital role. She has absolutely flourished at Z90 and we look forward to watching her take Magic 92.5 to new heights.”
San Andres said, “I love my family here at Local Media San Diego and am grateful to be embarking on this new adventure, which now includes Magic 92.5! 2Pac, Boyz II Men, SWV, Outkast? This is the music I grew up on! I want to thank R Dub!, OM Joe Lindsay and President/GM Gregg Wolfson for the opportunity. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have music logs to do.”
San Andres fills the Magic MD position left open by Lenny Balistreri, who remains very busy as Executive Producer of the building’s three live and very active morning shows.
