Ron Stone, CEO of Adams Radio said “Johnette has done an amazing job for us, and in the most amazing circumstances. No one knew at the time she relocated from Indianapolis what the country was about to endure. She walked into a market and found herself operating as the top management person on site in the most unusual of circumstances. She has proven herself during these “worst of times” to be not only a terrific sales leader but also a terrific leader in general. I could not be prouder of what she has accomplished in the past six months and cannot wait to see the results as she is now fully unleashed”.

Cochran started her radio career in 2004 with Access 1 Communications in Shreveport, Louisiana. She quickly learned her passion for the radio industry and has been earning stripes since. Johnette has worked for well-known radio companies throughout her career such as Townsquare Media, Alpha Media and Guaranty Media out of Baton Rouge. Her experience in radio formats is broad including Classic Rock, Urban & Country. She has also worked with College and NFL Sports. Johnette is adamant about keeping up with the newest trends and changes in the industry. She is RAB certified with CRMC and CDMC & other certifications from review boards.

Johnette says “I’m delighted to grow into this position with Adams Radio Group. Becoming a General Manager has always been my goal and I am blessed to have this opportunity on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and Delaware. I have been connecting to the community in a limited way during covid, and now I free to truly get out and get to know the people in this great market. I am excited to help local businesses grow and thrive again through our marketing strategies with radio and digital assets. My greatest accomplishments have been working with the local small business owners, and I plan to continue doing just that. Live and local, that’s my plan.”
