Entercom has announced the appointment of Miguel “Mijo” Irizarry to the role of Program Director at Power 96 (WPOW-FM) in Miami, where the newly-minted boss will also handle the midday show host duties.

Mijo joined Power 96 in August of 2017, after holding down on-air roles for sister stations WTDY (then Wired 96.5) in Philly and Hot 104.7 in Portland, ME—where he was also Music Director.

“Mijo’s passion for radio and for Power 96 is unmatched,” said Keriann Worley, SVP and Market Manager, Entercom South Florida. “We are pleased to elevate him to the role of Program Director and look forward to the station’s continued growth under his leadership.”

Mijo said, "I am thrilled and honored to take on the role of Program Director. There's a unique renaissance movement happening in South Florida, and Power 96 leads the way. We're going back to our roots and treating our brand like the boutique radio station it was designed to be. The Power 96 staff aren't just coworkers – they're family.”
