Ambassador of the Month

Veteran Broadcaster & Singer Jon Wilson Shares His Voice With Others

Chamber Ambassador Jon Wilson relocated to Texas from Ohio more than 25 years ago. Jon worked in broadcasting for four decades and could be heard on music and talk format radio stations around the country. His last 10 years were in sports radio.

“Working with the Chamber, as a volunteer ambassador gives me a great opportunity to learn more about the Coppell community and interact with people I admire and respect. The Chamber is full of entrepreneurial spirits and being around that energy is fantastic.” – Jon Wilson

His personal life has also been enriched by the Chamber! He met his wife Lori when she was working at the Chamber in 2013 and Jon stepped up to volunteer on the Gala. Lori and he share a passion for singing. Officially, he is in four different choirs, including the Coppell Community Chorale. In addition to singing, he loves to cook. If you follow him on Facebook he usually shares his creations.

Thanks for all you do to support and grow the Chamber, Jon!
