Audacy announced Jayn as midday host on 94/7 Alternative Portland (KNRK-FM). Jayn will be heard weekdays from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. PT beginning April 3. Jayn currently serves as afternoon host and Music Supervisor for Alice @ 97.3 (KLLC-FM) and Music Supervisor of 105.3 Dave FM (KITS-FM) in San Francisco and will continue in those positions.
“What a thrill it is to have one of America’s top air talents rejoin the 94/7 team,” said Mark Hamilton, Brand Manager, 94/7 Alternative Portland. “Jayn was part of the original lineup from 1995 to 2003. Her passion for alternative music, Portland and radio puts the icing on the 94/7 cake. Welcome back Jayn!”

Jayn began her radio career writing news for radio as a summer intern in the gallery of the House of Representatives. Once back in Reno where she went to college, she worked at several stations before joining KRZQ, where she began at nights and later moved to mornings. She moved on to mornings at KEDJ in Phoenix, and from there headed north to sister station 94/7 Alternative Portland (KNRK-FM) where she spent eight years in middays and as Assistant Program Director and Music Director. She joined Alice @ 97.3 in San Francisco in 2004 and hosted middays from 2006 until 2014, when she then took over afternoons. In January 2020, she was named Music Supervisor of Alt 105.3 (KITS-FM), and she rejoined that team in October of 2021 as Music Supervisor of the rebranded 105.3 Dave FM.
