My name is Evan Cox, and I'm a 25-year-old native of upstate New York. Seeking new opportunities, I relocated to Los Angeles to create a better life for myself. Recently, I've embarked on an incredible journey into videography and photography, discovering a passion that has transformed my creative outlook. One of the most exciting ventures I'm part of is UGURadio, a digital radio station that has long been a hidden gem.

I'm thrilled to be the co-owner of such an inspiring platform that aims to support and elevate artists.
