The iHeartMedia stations serving the home of Major League Baseball’s Brewers have a new Vice President of Sales. She’ll work closely with the stations’ sales executives to deliver “innovative marketing solutions for advertisers” across the company’s broadcast, digital, and live event platforms.


Colleen Valkoun will report to Dan Lenz, the Market President for iHeartMedia’s WMIL, WRIT, WKKV, WRNW, WISN and WOKY in Milwaukee.

“Colleen is a proven leader with a track record of success in this market,” said Lenz. “Her expertise, energy and passion for Milwaukee and the business community, make her the perfect fit for this role. We’re thrilled to have her back at iHeartMedia Milwaukee.”

Valkoun rejoins the Northwest and Central Division of iHeartMedia from the Milwaukee Radio Alliance, where she most recently served as the President/GM. These stations have been sold to K-LOVE. “Coming back to iHeartMedia Milwaukee feels like a full circle moment in my career,” said Valkoun. “I am excited to reunite with such a talented team and to help drive growth and innovation for our partners and our brands.”

Valkoun also held several leadership roles in her previous stint with iHeartMedia in Milwaukee, including national sales roles, vice president of sales positions and general manager/president titles.

Valkoun began her career at the Saga Communications in the market.
