Zach Dillon
101.1 the River Program Director
Host of 101.1 the River in the Morning (weekdays 5:30a-9:00a)
I was that kid in high school who had no clue what he wanted to do for a career, but that changed when I participated in an explorer program through Loras College to learn about radio broadcasting right here at Radio Dubuque. I graduated from Hempstead in 2013 and went on to attend the University of Dubuque and NICC, decided on a career in radio, then in 2017 I enrolled at Radio1 Broadcast School in LaCross, Wisconsin. It was later that year that Iād land my job on 101.1 The River and Iāve been here ever since. When Iām not working I enjoy casually playing video games, hiking, biking, watching sports (particularly the Hawkeyes and Bears) and cooking.
