NEW YORK, January 20, 2021 – Magid announces the hiring of Desirée Colomina as Senior Consultant, Local Media.

Colomina joins Magid from Telemundo, where she was most recently Executive Producer of the morning show “hoy Día.” She began her career as a segment producer for Al Rojo Vivo, Telemundo’s afternoon newsmagazine. She was later promoted to assignment manager and subsequently to on-air reporter and director of special projects for Telemundo network news. In that role, she was responsible for specials, investigative shows and breaking news.

Colomina also previously served as the director of FIFA programming and directed many of Telemundo’s special news programming. In 2012, she worked on the launch of the XFINITY Latino channel, a Comcast platform to promote Hispanic content, overseeing production of the channel until early 2016.
