The Praise Network has a small staff dedicated to supporting each of our stations and their listeners. We’re here to help with the details and make sure Christian radio stays on the air in your community!
Alex McKenzie - President / Engineer
I’ve been with the network since 2006, starting on the air part time (and taking out the trash) at KPRD as a teenager. Since then I’ve had the privilege to serve in many roles with the Praise Network. including Chief Engineer (since 2012).
Now as President I still get to support our network of transmitters and studios, but also serve our network of fantastic staff all across Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, and South Dakota.
My wife Teagan and I enjoy travelling to see friends all around the country (see the tiny Seattle space needle?)
Lisa Green - Nebraska Business Manager
Lisa processes donations for all our stations and makes sure the countless bills get paid! We couldn't do it without her! She's always here to help, if you have questions or need a problem resolved, please send her a note, or call the office at 402-336-1230.
Percy the dog brightens everyone’s day when he get’s to visit the office!
In the mid-summer of 2005, I began working part time for KPRD by voice tracking the overnight hours. I stepped into the role of KPRD Office Manager in 2008, and recently Kansas Business Manager in 2024.
The most rewarding part of working for the Praise Network and KPRD is being a part of the ministry as we share the Gospel and other encouraging Scriptures with our listeners. And now, it’s been a privilege to be doing some of the “behind the scenes” work.
My husband and I enjoy the outdoors and spending time with our children and their spouses, and our grandchildren!
