I grew up in Beecher, a small town in southern Illinois (population 3,200), where I played soccer, baseball and basketball. While in college, I was the lead singer in “Touch Me! Touch You!”, performing throughout the mid-West. After college, I moved to Los Angeles to write and produce music for up-and-coming female pop artists. In 2011, I hooked on with KVEG Hot 97.5 in Las Vegas. From Street Team member to Social Media and Promotions Coordinator, within a few months I got a chance to crack the mic and became a radio personality for the station! Now I am lucky enough to entertain my lil bears throughout the Treasure Valley evenings from 7p-12a. I love your face!

Music From Huggie..Old To Me, But New To You
When I am feeling un-creative, or technology is just really letting me down..like most days. I tend to dig up old songs and listen to the things I have written in the past. This is the craziest of "time capsules". Do you even hear a song on the radio, or comes up on Pandora or some type of other music playing/social interaction website that just takes you to the exact time you had heard
