NEW GENERAL MANAGER

James Baptiste is the man you've got to know. Originally from Miami, Florida, he got into radio as a student at Abraham Baldwin College. For the past seven years, he's worked in information technology at WABE, Atlanta, Georgia's NPR outlet.

 

"Black culture is American culture," says Baptiste. "WJZP's music already brings everyone together over the airwaves. I'm looking forward to bringing people together at concerts and events in the coming year."

 

Please contact James directly: local sponsorship packages, volunteer capabilities, ideas and suggestions, or whatever else is on your mind: info@wjzp1079.org
