Cox brings more than 25 years of broadcast experience to the role, as well as decades of experience in accounting, business, research, and management. Cox officially assumes the position of AZPM Radio Program Director effective, August 7.
AZPM is currently managing several radio expansion projects, including new FM operations in the Arizona communities of Safford and St. Johns/Pinetop.
“Securing licenses from the FCC was the first step in our plans to provide NPR coverage to areas outside AZPM’s current broadcast footprint,” said Ian MacSpadden, AZPM Chief Technology Officer. “These projects are part of AZPM’s strategic efforts to expand coverage and listening options for communities throughout Arizona.”
