Educational Media Foundation has named Mandy Young as vice president of radio for the EMF Radio Group, a promotion to a newly created position.
Young’s current title is radio group program director. She joined EMF in 2009 and has worked in various programming roles, most recently in charge of programming for Air1 and K-Love.
She reports to Chief Content Officer Jim Houser, who said in the announcement, “Her leadership in the creation of a ground-breaking worship format on Air1 and her steering of the K-Love on-air sound is shaping the future of both networks.”

Troy West moves up to succeed Young as EMF radio program director.
Young called West “one of the best in the business at making a station sound technically amazing.”
West was hired as assistant PD of the radio group last year after working in programming or management roles at stations in Houston, Grand Rapids and West Palm Beach.
