OUR TEAM
KRAIG KANN
PRESIDENT, FOUNDER
“At Kann Advisory, we’ve helped big corporate brands and their top-level professionals to reach new heights in their industry as powerful communicators, dynamic storytellers and engaging brand ambassadors. Our broadcast program ties in many of those same principles. We’ll elevate on-air talent and help create – in them – a brand worth following.
The founder of Kann Advisory Group, Kraig spent eight years in local markets as a news and sports reporter and anchor before reaching the network level as one of NBC Golf Channel’s original on-air personalities. He rose to become the network’s main studio host and handled the lead play-by-play role for three years during an 18-year run. He then pivoted to a C-Suite communications role for the LPGA. Kraig’s vast experience also includes radio as he hosted his own show on SiriusXM for five years. He has a podcast “Tracks To Success,” has authored a best-selling book “Can You Get Our Attention?” and teaches broadcast students at Full Sail University in Orlando, FL.
MEG GREEN
SENIOR DIRECTOR
“In my 30-plus years in the industry, no talent has ever told me they received enough feedback. Kann Advisory is a well-established leader in the space of executive branding and presentation skills and that combined with the expertise of our amazing coaches will provide a very unique perspective to the clients we serve.”
The day-to-day leader of KAG’s Broadcast Talent Coaching division, Meg brings a resume unparalleled in the coaching and mentoring space. In three decades at ESPN, she transformed departments and people through lead roles in production that ultimately carried her to the top of the network’s management team steering on-air talent recruitment, talent assessment and contract negotiations. Among her standout talents is a keen ability to identify current strengths and long-term potential of emerging on-air personalities. With powerful connections and a law degree on her resume, few are in her class when it comes to all phases of consulting. The gift of time with Meg will no doubt help clients see a path to becoming a talent that gets noticed.
ROB JOHNSON
SENIOR ADVISOR
“I’m thrilled to be joining Kann Advisory Group to work with other talented pros who’ve risen the ranks to great success in the broadcasting and media industry. We’re not just in the business of creating dynamic communicators, we’re in the brand-building business and I think our clients will truly enjoy that part of the process.”
Few understand the landscape and trends of local news and how to reach and sustain success better than Rob. A former major market news anchor in big market cities like Chicago and Houston, Rob has earned multiple Emmy Awards in his career that began with a path through Louisiana and Arkansas. He is also a leading consultant, bringing his expert strategic communications experience to the KAG team. With TV leading his resume, Rob is also a Chicago radio personality and podcast host of “Can You Hear Me?” With a unique ability to help talent find noticeable comfort on the desk and in the field, Rob is ready to help you climb the ladder of success just as he did.
ANTOINE LEWIS
SENIOR ADVISOR
“I am ecstatic to be working with this accomplished group of KAG professionals as we share the same mission to mentor and help talented people improve their craft. I’m committed to providing quality coaching to broadcasters and content creators that helps them achieve their goals.”
A voracious storyteller and content creator, Lewis is a multiple Emmy Award- winning producer who began his career as a field producer for the Today Show and NBC Nightly News. Stops in Cleveland, Chicago, Indianapolis and Denver propelled him to ESPN where he built his brand as one of the network’s top producers on ESPNNEWS before shifting to bigger roles with College Football Live, NFL Live and the chance to guide First Take from its inception. Years working with big name talent, time as an established media consultant, and numerous national awards earned for his TV contributions, there is no doubt he’ll leave a lasting imprint on clients through KAG’s Broadcast Talent Coaching program.
VICTOR ROJAS
SENIOR ADVISOR
“The chance to contribute to the broadcasting field as a coach and mentor is both inspiring and fulfilling. I look forward to sharing my knowledge and insights, aiming to make a meaningful impact. I’ve called some pretty big home runs and I’m excited to help emerging talent hit their own.”
A veteran MLB broadcasting talent, Victor climbed the ranks to become one of the game’s more recognizable faces and voices. Rojas’s broadcasting resume began with the Newark Bears in 2001. Just two years later he was hired by the Arizona Diamondbacks as a radio analyst. A year later, the Texas Rangers called his name and by 2008, MLB Network had hired him as a studio host and play-by-play announcer, also putting him on the desk to officially launch MLB Network in January 2009. Fourteen months later, the Los Angeles Angels made him their television play-by-play announcer. He was the broadcast face of the franchise for 11 seasons calling numerous no-hitters and Albert Pujols’s 3000th hit and 600th home run.
