With Comcast divesting NBCUniversal's cable assets and setting up a new company Versant, the formation of its communications executive team has finally come to an end.In this strategic restructuring, two senior media people—Erin Calhoun and Steve Arocho—were appointed senior vice presidents of entertainment and sports communications and vice presidents of corporate communications, respectively, to officially join the high-profile new team.

Erin Calhoun will be based in Los Angeles and is responsible for developing and executing PR strategies and media affairs for multiple channels including USA Network, Oxygen, E!, Syfy, Golf Channel, GolfNow, Fandango, Rotten Tomatoes and Sports Engine.Her joining not only brings rich industry experience, but also marks the reunion of her collaboration with the NBCUniversal series brands.Previously, she served as Executive Vice President of Communications at Paramount, leading the streaming media platforms Paramount, Showtime and cross-departmental PR; earlier, she also held positions at Showtime and Paramount Television Studios.As early as 2016-2017, she was also the head of corporate communications for USA and Syfy, and this return was a natural result.

Steve Arocho will be responsible for Versant's corporate social responsibility and digital communications affairs.He was the vice president of corporate communications at the Major League Baseball. During his tenure, he promoted a number of community building, youth development and multicultural promotion projects, and successfully planned several charitable cooperation programs.His joining will undoubtedly bring more social influence and brand warmth to Versant.

The news was announced to all employees through an internal memorandum by Versant Chief Communications Officer Keith Cocozza.With Calhoun and Arocho in place, Versant’s communication team has become more complete.

The communication team members that have been announced include Lauren Skowronski, CNBC’s senior vice president of global communications, Richard Hudock, MSNBC’s senior vice president of communications, Diana Rocco, Versant’s vice president of internal communications, and Hollie Tracz, vice president of media relations.
