Foley Named Region Pres., iHeart S. Ohio

• Kris Foley has been named Region President for iHeartMedia’s South Ohio Region, effective immediately. As Region President, Foley will work closely with the programming, business and sales teams for all 27+ brands in the Columbus, Cincinnati and Dayton markets and report to Tom McConnell, Division President for iHeartMedia Markets Group.

“I’ve worked with Kris for a long time and I’m very excited to have her take on this new role,” said McConnell. “She is extremely talented and a natural leader. Her experience working across all divisions of our company, combined with her knowledge and understanding of the markets within the South Ohio region make her the perfect choice for this position.””

Foley is a graduate of Ohio University and is described as “an adept media veteran who has taken on various roles within the iHeartMedia,” most recently as the VP of Multi-Market Partnerships and Business Development. She previously served as SVP of Sales in North Ohio, and its only fitting that she began her career at iHeartMedia Top 40 WKFS (Kiss 107.1)/Cincinnati.

“I started my media career in South Ohio as an account executive,” said Foley. “I’m absolutely thrilled to be working alongside the strong leaders and incredible team here in South Ohio and I can’t wait to take the region to new levels. We’re passionate about the role companionship plays in the lives of our listeners and the value we can deliver to our business partners.”
