Nina Chantele is doing what no other woman in radio has done before. Her roles as co-host of Chicago’s WGCI-FM’s popular morning show,“The Morning Riot,” and midday personality of KISS-FM have made her the first on-air personality to do double duty in a major market. She’s even doing two different formats (urban and top 40). Not bad for a woman who never intended to become an on-air personality.

Nina caught the broadcasting bug in early 2000, after a friend noticed something special about the Chicago native and strongly suggested that she turn in a demo to local stations. Two-days later she landed a part-time job at WPWX-FM and within a year was offered her first full-time gig at WMIB-FM in Miami, Florida doing afternoon drive. The former medical billing specialist quickly won over the locals and when the ratings came in she received confirmation that radio truly is her calling. After becoming such a huge hit, her voice instantly became a staple in others cities such as; Dallas, Austin, Ft. Meyers and Charleston just ti name a few.

In 2006, The hard work had paid off when she was asked to return home to Chicago as KISS-FM’s midday personality and after three successful years was offered additional duties with their sister station, WGCI-FM, as part of the “The Morning Riot.” Each morning, she uses her wit and charm to compliment her two male co-hosts and then quickly changes studios to fly solo each midday. In 2010, she added reporting the entertainment news twice a week on ‘Good Day Chicago’ FOX, to her already jam-packed schedule. In May 2011, Nina was asked to join ABC Chicago’s ‘Windy City Live’, an ensemble program that filled the ‘Oprah’ time slot. Her segment ‘Nina Knows’, appears every week delivering the latest in celebrity gossip and trends.

With every move Nina has proven that she can hold her own and bring in the listeners. Her friendly “you can tell me anything” persona intermingled with infectious humor, informative celebrity interviews and hit songs keeps her listeners tuned in daily to receive their dose of Latina love.

In this male-dominated industry, Nina considers herself a spokesperson for women. She diligently seeks to represent strong, intelligent, successful, driven women, while encouraging others to work hard to achieve their dreams. This multitalented communicator has also proven herself to be a desirable commodity in the voice ov
