KSLT Names New Program Director

KSLT/Rapid City (107.1) has promoted Alan Bonde to Program Director. Alan replaces Jamie Knapp who remains with the station hosting the morning show.

Alan has been with the Northwestern Media station for 2.5 years starting out in sales, then became Listener Engagement Director last August until the promotion to PD.

Alan told HisAir today, “God’s timing is everything. I grew up listening to KSLT. When going to college, I didn’t know what I wanted to do for a career. So, on a whim, I decided to major in business because it was a broad category, and minor in music due to my background playing piano. When I graduated, I didn’t know how those degrees would help me professionally. Long story short, I got into a profession that wasn’t for me… radio never crossed my mind until the day my dad heard on the radio that there was a sales position at KSLT. I applied and got the job. Now, I’m in a career where business and music go together hand-in-hand perfectly. Even when I didn’t know what I was doing, God did. And it’s been the best job I have had.”
