Live with Tonya Rivens of CBS Radio and WBTV

After a lengthy career in Airline Management,  Tonya Rivens developed a passion for all things radio.  During her 14-years in the industry, Rivens has worn the titles of Program Director , Music  Director and Community Affairs Director.  "Sunday Morning Inspirations With Tonya Rivens" is now featured on WPEG (Power 98).  Her radio career  also includes stints at WBAV (V-101.9), WPZS (100.9)  and WGIV (103.3)

Early in 2011 Rivens decided to branch out in the pursuit of radio syndication with the creation of  "Gospel Insight with Tonya Rivens." Less than a year later,  the show is now featured on WYPJ (Joy 95.3) in Anderson, SC and  WBLA - AM ( Shine 1440)  in Elizabethtown, North Carolina.  Rivens embarked on a television career in the fall of  2011 when she joined the WBTV team as afternoon traffic reporter.

"For everyone to whom much is given, of him shall much be required." -- Luke 12:48  This scripture comes to mind  when others speak of Rivens and her giving nature.  She helps prepare up-and-coming broadcasters at the Carolina School Of Broadcasting where she works as a part-time instructor.  Rivens' dedication to community has garnered her awards from The Urban League of the Central Carolinas and the Charlotte Mecklenburg NAACP
