EBOARD Spring 2025

General Managers

 

Haddy Greenidge

Haddy Greenidge, general manager.

Year: Senior

Hometown: Abington, PA

Studying: Political Science (major) & Anthropology (minor)

In WVAU since: Fall 2022

Often walking around with her head in the clouds, Haddy can be spotted bouncing around D.C. with her clunky headphones and overly decorated bag. With a playlist that jumps from Johnny Cash to Tyler, the Creator, it’s safe to say Haddy is all over the place—in more ways than one. She’s a self-proclaimed live music lover (not a fighter), so after sunset you’ll likely find her in the crowd at Black Cat or 9:30 Club, singing and dancing her heart out. Don’t worry—she’ll be at the Dav bright and early the next day to grab a cold brew with honey before setting off on another adventure. If you see her around campus, say hello! She’s always happy to chat about her current musical obsession—or hear about yours.

Samantha Merar-Osborne

Year: Senior

Hometown: Pittsburgh, PA

Studying: International Relations & Russian Studies (majors), Studio Art (minor)

In WVAU since: Spring 2022

Misunderstood genius. Voice of a generation. General manager Samantha can usually be found in one of the Katzen studios or at the front desk of the Black Cat, and is easily identifiable by her bright pink hair and black headphones. Despite having chronic rbf, Samantha would actually be very happy to talk about all things live music and college radio (or anything else!) with you. Reach out to her with any questions, comments, ideas, or upcoming shows in the DMV…

Art Directors

 

Quinn Fitzpatrick

Quinn Fitzpatrick, art director.

When she’s not hunched over an art project or a book, listening to a playlist once described as “whiplash inducing,” Quinn is most likely making herself a rose chai at the Dav. Anytime she’s not giving in to her tea addiction, you’ll probably find her baking in a lounge that isn’t her own—after hauling every cooking utensil possible from her dorm. She’s also her two dogs’ biggest fan.

PJ Hogbin


Year: Senior

From: Berkeley Springs, WV

Studying: Women’s Gender and Sexuality Studies (major) & American Studies (minor)

In WVAU Since: Spring 2022

PJ Hogbin is a senior from West Virginia who is far too freaked out about graduating and career prospects (for someone with a gender studies degree) to come up with a clever bio for the WVAU website. If you’d like to pay the property taxes on PJ’s 2012 Nissan Rogue, please email [email protected].

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Director

 

Joce Motley


Year: Senior

Hometown: Prince George’s County, MD

Studying: Business Administration & Finance (majors)

In WVAU since: Fall 2023

If you are ever in need of bubbles, Jocelyn is your person. You can spot her on campus by her ever-changing, bedazzled headphones spelling out her DJ name, JoceDotCom. When she’s not in the studio, she’s probably napping on the quad soaking in the sun—listening to her favorite tunes—or working with her music media collective, Soundfynd, alongside her best friends.

Events Directors

 

Maddie Ogletree

Maddie Ogletree, events director.

Year: Junior

Hometown: Fairfax, VA

Studying: Public Relations (major), Business and Entertainment & Marketing (minors)

In WVAU since: Spring 2023

Contrary to popular belief, Maddie is not that indie boy standing across the quad in a leather jacket. She is simply a Car Seat Headrest–loving, self-described “weirdo freak girl” who is trying her best.

Myla Pirmann

Myla Pirmann, events director.

Year: Senior

Hometown: Baltimore, MD

Studying: Business and Entertainment (major)

In WVAU since: Fall 2023

Myla has never taken those headphones off her neck or ears. Seriously.

Music Directors

 

Marley Hollister


Raised by a record-obsessed father, Marley was destined to be an addict of all things music. A strong proponent of listening to her “liked” songs instead of making playlists, you’ll often find her wearing headphones and cycling through everything from dream pop to psychedelic roots rock. Say hi if you see her lifeguarding at the Aquatic Center (it can get pretty boring), or catch her ordering a matcha at the Dav. You can also tune in each week to hear her on “Black Cat Radio,” only at WVAU.org.

Aarsh Raja

Aarsh Raja, music director.

Year: Sophomore

Hometown: Boyds, MD

Studying: Philosophy (major), Environmental Science & History (minors)

In WVAU since: Fall 2022

You can typically find Aarsh hanging out with friends outside the Dav (if the weather permits) or in his room listening to music while keeping busy with some silly activity. Although he listens to a wide variety of genres, he always comes back to folk music. He hopes everyone has a very “Pure Heroine” semester and goes on awesome adventures.

Outreach Director

 

Rebbeca Haghnegahdar

Rebbeca Haghnegahdar, outreach director.

Year: Sophomore

Hometown: The Bay Area, CA

Studying: Journalism & Economics (majors)

In WVAU since: Fall 2023

Rebbeca is a sophomore from California serving as outreach director this semester. Outside of WVAU, she loves to dance, bake and explore the city with friends. She’s into all things music—attending concerts, collecting vinyl and even keeping up with friends on Airbuds. Her favorite artists include Lana Del Rey, Beabadoobee, Childish Gambino and more.

Programming Director

 

Alana Parker

Alana Parker, programming director.

Year: Junior

Hometown: Portland, OR

Studying: Political Science & Journalism (double major)

In WVAU since: Fall 2022

This is Alana’s sixth semester at WVAU. She loves Mac Miller, The Weeknd and SZA—but not as much as she loves her dog, Frank. When she isn’t in the studio or chatting with DJs, you can find her writing and editing for The Eagle’s opinion section, working as an orientation chair for new students or at The Bridge with an iced latte and apple fritter in hand.

Promotional Director

 

Andrew Webster

Andrew Webster, promo director

Year: Junior

Hometown: Connecticut (?!)

Major: Political Science and Government (major)

Andrew, a Connecticut native and New England advocate, shares the same music taste your grandma had in 1994. He listens to a little too much jazz and is Blossom Dearie’s No. 1 fan—he’s in her top 0.0001% of monthly listeners. He also loves Playboi Carti, Bob Dylan and Aphex Twin. Andrew enjoys running, drinking coffee and reading. When he isn’t in the studio, at the Dav or running past you on Massachusetts Avenue, he’s probably working on a DJ set or sitting outside the National Cathedral—he loves it there. While he’s studying political science and legal studies, he swears he’s chill and normal.

Tech Directors

 

Sam Farace

Sam Farace, tech director.

Sam is a junior at AU studying audio production. Hailing from Middletown, Pennsylvania, she brings her small-town love of music to the studio, where she spends her time mixing tracks and searching for new ways to bring stories to life through sound. As the leader of AU’s Women in Audio, she’s passionate about amplifying voices—literally and figuratively. If you spot her on campus, she’s probably daydreaming about her next project or heading to the studio to lock in for the foreseeable future.

Kelley Kloncz

Kelley Kloncz, web director


Year: Senior

Hometown: Maple Grove, MN

Studying: Audio Production (major) & Business and Entertainment (minor)

In WVAU since: Spring 2023

Kelley is an avid Sonic the Hedgehog fan and will make you watch the movies if you haven’t already. She spends her time drawing and playing on the PS4. When she’s getting ready to go out, you’ll usually hear podcasts or YouTube debates playing from her phone. As a senior, she plans to bartend and work live sound after graduating.

Web Directors

 

Emma Davison

Emma Davison, web director.

Year: Senior

Hometown: Arlington, MA

Studying: Psychology (major) & Public Health (minor)

In WVAU since: Spring 2022

Emma loves libraries, relies heavily on ginger chews and firmly believes you can scrapbook anything if you really put your mind to it.

Miles Wilson

Miles Wilson, web director.

Year: Senior

Hometown: McLean, VA

Studying: Philosophy

In WVAU since: Fall 2022

When people talk about Miles, they always say music is his life. When he’s not living it, he’s probably pickling or fermenting—everyone says that, too. He’s Ward 3’s No. 1 undercover Pharrell fan and doesn’t mind taking an hour-long Metro ride if the destination is worth it.
