In her new position, Beebe will be responsible for all operations over seven markets: Louisville, Lexington and Somerset KY along with Columbia, Charleston, Myrtle Beach and Florence SC. She takes the reigns in the Kentucky markets that had been held by former Kentucky/Indiana Region President Earl Jones until his exit last month.

As Area President, Beebe will be responsible for all operations over the seven markets in the newly formed Kentucky/Carolina Area, including Louisville, Lexington and Somerset, KY along with Columbia, Charleston, Myrtle Beach and Florence, SC. She will report to Nick Gnau, Division President for iHeartMedia.
“Kristy has shown success in every opportunity that has been presented, she knows how to build culture and high performing teams,” said Gnau. “Her passion for serving the community, our portfolio of assets and her team makes her the perfect choice to lead this newly developed Area. I look forward to working with Kristy and watching her continued successes over the seven markets in the Kentucky/Carolina Area.”
Kristy Beebe joins the Kentucky/Carolina Area from the iHeartMedia Indianapolis cluster where she most recently served as the Market President. She also served as the Vice President of Sales for the iHeartMedia Kentucky markets. She began her career at Cumulus Broadcasting in Toledo, Ohio and is a graduate of Lourdes College.
