In her new role, Bello will be responsible for developing sales opportunities with key multicultural advertisers and their agencies across ����ֱ�� broadcast stations, digital, podcast, events and Premiere Networks, which includes “Tu Mañana and On The Move with Enrique Santos,” “The Breakfast Club” and the “Steve Harvey Morning Show.” She will also work closely with Enrique Santos, Chairman and Chief Creative Officer of iHeartLatino, to create an innovative go-to-market audio strategy for ����ֱ��’s Hispanic portfolio.
