Our speaker will be David M. Vacheresse, President of Annunciation Radio.

Dave began working with EWTN’s Radio division in 1993. He became the General Manager for EWTN’s first full-time AM/FM affiliate station in Reno, Nevada in January of 1997.

That single station grew into a Catholic radio group that included over 30 stations throughout California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Hawaii.

Dave has served as the General Manager of Immaculate Heart Radio, President of Relevant Radio and the General Manager of EWTN Radio. He has traveled the country for over 20 years assisting numerous Catholic radio apostolates in their efforts to launch new stations from coast to coast.

During Dave’s tenure as General Manager of EWTN Global Catholic Radio, the radio division grew from just under 100 affiliated AM/FM stations worldwide to well over 500. It also grew on the program creation/production side, going from producing two hours of original content each day to producing/co-producing 11 hours of original content each day.

In 2016 Dave returned to his work with EWTN affiliated stations/networks. During that time, he led projects for stations in Alabama, Florida, Kansas, Missouri, Colorado, Washington, Oregon and DC.

In February of 2019 Dave and his wife, Eileen, relocated to Toledo, Ohio to work with Annunciation Radio. In addition to his role as President he also co-hosts a daily morning program titled, Morning Offering with Ron & Dave (M-F 8am). He and Eileen have 5 children and 5 grandchildren.
