Emily

What's goin' on, y'all? This feels kinda like a Tinder Bio, kinda nervous. I was born and raised in Rockford and somehow never left! I use my platform as an open book and to empower others. Growing up, my parents would turn off the WIFI saying I was too "obsessed" with social media. Thankfully, I never listened to my parents and my obsession led me to where I am today: in radio. You can always find me chillin' with my furbabies (Ramen and Noodles), surfing the World Wide Web, and brainstorming my next best post.
