CBA Welcomes New/Former Board Members
• The Colorado Broadcasters Association wrapped up its annual board elections and is excited to welcome back Associate Director, Tony Garcia, Founder of Global Media Services, Inc.; Dean Littleton, VP/GM of E.W. Scripps Denver; and Dan Smith, GM of KWHS-TV/Colorado Springs.
CBA members were also invited to elect a new Metro Market Television Board Director — that role will be filled by Telemundo Denver President & GM, Tatiana Arguello, starting July 1. Arguello (left) began her career as an intern with Telemundo in 2001, and after gaining experience with the Denver station in various roles, was promoted in 2008 and moved to New York as Director of Northeast National Sales and Multicultural Lead for the NBCU Telemundo Station Group. Recognized for her transformational leadership, strategic execution and audience engagement across all platforms, Arguello returned to Colorado as President & GM of Telemundo Denver in 2019.
In April, the Board of Directors appointed Nick Matesi, Senior Vice President at Gray Television (right), to fulfill the term of outgoing board director, Evan Pappas, who accepted an opportunity out of state.
Justin Sasso, President & CEO of the CBA, remarked, “The staff and board of the CBA are excited to get rolling with these new board directors, who have consistently contributed ideas and support to the association for many years. Adding these new directors to the existing brain trust of CBA board members will lend to the continued growth of the association, while producing further benefits to our members.” The CBA’s Board of Directors is made up of 12 broadcast members and one associate member.
