Educational Media Foundation (EMF), the parent ministry and programmer of the world’s two largest Christian music radio networks, announces the hiring of Jarrod Graetz to help lead the expansion of K-LOVE and Air1?s audio streaming.

Graetz relocated from Australia to the Nashville area for this opportunity and reports to EMF?s chief content officer, Jim Houser.
?Jarrod is a highly accomplished, future-focused, strategic leader and we?re thrilled to have him on our team,? Houser said. ?He?s worked in both secular and Christian radio settings.

?Five minutes with Jarrod and you know that his true passion is to take the Gospel farther and to use radio and streaming as a means to do it,? said Mandy Young, vice president of EMF Radio Group. ?It?s exciting that Jarrod is joining us with his international experience to expand our product offering and to help people hear about the God who loves and cares for them.?
