Jillene Khan

Jillene Khan has built a successful broadcasting career around her love of music, sharing stories, and curiosity about the world. She is a Minnesota native who grew up in a home where the radio was always on, and she was captivated by the fun conversations that happened between the music. Her career has taken her to radio stations in Minneapolis, Minnesota; Davenport, Iowa; Milwaukee and Madison, Wisconsin; and along the way, she’s earned a Gracie Award and other honors for her work. Jillene’s favorite thing about being a Classical host is uncovering the stories told within the music and exploring the lives of the composers who wrote it. For her, that’s where the real magic of Classical music comes alive. Outside the studio, Jillene and her partner, Lorie, love to enjoy outdoor adventures, catch live music whenever they can, and attempt to stay on the good side of their spirited tuxedo cat, Harri.
