In 1999, she departed for a role at iHeart predecessor Clear Channel, serving as a National Sales Coordinator through November 2001, when post 9/11 economic challenges contributed to her departure.

Agostino then worked briefly as a media marketing specialist for Spanish Broadcasting System (SBS) before handling lead generation and booth sales for The Casa Latina Home Expo.
