Pros On The Loose: Alek Halverson

• Alek Halverson has exited his role as Director of Programming & Brand Strategy for iHeartMedia Country duo KAJA (KJ97)/San Antonio and KASE/Austin after 4 1/2 years.

We first met Halverson in early 2019, when he was proclaimed a RAMP Leap Of The Week™ winner as he was launched upward from APD/MD/afternoons at Radio FM Media Top 40 KLTA (BIG 98.7)/Fargo, ND to the glittering city of Seattle as MD/afternoon drive personality at then-Entercom Country KKWF (100.7 The Wolf).

After he was one of many caught up in a wave of corporate downsizing in Sept. 2020, Halverson joined iHeartMedia Austin as afternoon talent on Country KASE 101 and APD of Top 40 sister KHFI (96.7 Kiss FM). In Nov. 2021 he added PD stripes for KAJA (KJ97)/San Antonio.

Looking ahead, Halverson is looking for his next opportunity, and can best be reached at alekhalverson22@gmail.com.
