Bonneville Pres. Brown Retires, Vea To Succeed
“I’ve loved my time at Bonneville, and it’s not easy to leave, but it’s the right time for me and my family,” Brown said. “I’m grateful for the opportunity that I’ve had to associate with so many wonderful employees as we’ve worked together to further Bonneville’s mission to be a positive influence on the communities we serve. We’ve grown as a company in our reach and impact, and I know that Tanya will take Bonneville to the next level. I’m thrilled for the future of the company under her leadership.”
Vea joined Bonneville in 2010 as VP of Program Development. She was later promoted to SVP/GM overseeing the Salt Lake City market’s radio, digital and TV platforms. In Oct. 2021 Vea was elevated to EVP of Content and Media Operations, overseeing content strategy for all Bonneville markets, while continuing to oversee Salt Lake City. Prior to her time with Bonneville, Vea worked in advertising and public relations and in various news management positions, including News Director for KUTV/SLC.
Vea commented, “Darrell has been an incredible mentor, and I’m so grateful for all that he’s done for Bonneville. He has led by example as a steward of the company and its resources. I will miss working with him, and I feel incredibly fortunate to take on this role knowing that he has put the company in a position of strength. Bonneville is a special company. I’m committed to building on the foundation of those who have come before me and am focused on fulfilling our mission to be trusted voices in our communities. Our greatest strength is our team of talented people, and I’m honored to be able to work with them to grow Bonneville for the future.”
