Howdy! I’m Clayton Rowland, but everyone knows me as Cole. I’m a senior at NMSU finishing up my BBA with a minor in Marketing and Management.
Right now, I serve as the General Manager of KRUX 91.5 (FM). That means I get to lead one of the only student-run (FM) radio stations in New Mexico, keeping the airwaves alive, planning concerts and community events, and making sure our staff has the space to be creative and bold. Student radio is supposed to be raw and real, and I take pride in making sure KRUX (FM) stays just that.
I’m originally from Portales, NM, but Las Cruces became home the moment I found KRUX and the community around it. Whether I’m behind the mic, at a concert, or in the station, I’m here to amplify student voices and keep the Aggie spirit strong.
When I’m not working on KRUX projects, you’ll probably catch me checking out new music, gaming, or chasing down the next big idea. At the end of the day, I like to keep things fun, meaningful, and maybe a little chaotic... in the best way.

I’m Adara. I run the music here. In my final semester, still balancing biochemistry by day, sound checks by night and a bleach and tone somewhere in between. If I’m not behind the mic, I’m probably working on something that smells like vanilla, leather and peroxide. Totally didn’t plan to fall into musical theatre, but it turns out I’m good at it. Like, actually good. When I'm not on the stage I'll be your front woman's favorite heckler in the crowd. Find me in the booth, the lab, or anywhere the bass is loud and the lighting’s just right. I'll be the one in the best boots < 3
Holis gang, I’m Rubí! I’m from El Paso, I'm currently a sophmore at NMSU as an economics major, and I'm pretty much the sound guy around here. Some things I love are buldak noodles, romcoms, 79¢ Polar Pops from Circle K, legos, and of course, music. Music is literally my entire life and everything I aspire to do revolves around it. I started producing my own little unmixed covers when I was 15 and I guess I just never stopped! I write a ton of songs on my guitar and looooove to jam with other people. I’m super picky with food and music but I’ll try anything once! I grew up listening to a lot of music in spanish and rock and it's followed me my entire life. I’ve been listening to the radio since forever and some of the best memories I have are from listening to Delilah at night and during christmas time with my mom! If you ever need a rhythm guitarist, someone to hop on fortnite with, or someone to mix your tracks, I am so your guy :)
What up, I'm Lilli your Programming Director here at KRUX. Basically, I stare at my computer all day, scheduling, sorting, uploading and making sure ALL the music AND shows YOU want make it ON AIR!! Safe to say I run things around here.... SIKE!! I lied...
I'm never to be seen without a pair of headphones on hand or music playing in the background. I listen to it ALL Xcept Country.... I said what I said.
I'm from El Paso, and am in my second year majoring in Soil Science, and Conservation Ecology. When I'm not in office you can catch me outside literally. I love the outdoors and am an ultra nature nerd with a side of unnecessary chaos. In my free time I like to chill with my cat and do arts in crafts. I do it all, if ever need to craft, destress, and listen to good music I'm your girl.
I am SOO excited to be the Programming Director here at KRUX! and am always keeping an ear out for new music, if you are interested in being a DJ, don't be shy, send me an email!
Hey! I’m Dean, your assistant programming director here at KRUX. This is my first semester as a member of the staff but i’ve been around a while as an intern, so you’re in good hands! I am currently working on my bachelors degree in studio art, as I’m very passionate about all the arts (including music lol). In my free time you can find me working on my art, practicing guitar/listening to music, or playing a game. When it comes to music, i enjoy listening to pretty much anything and everything. I especially enjoy listening to rock, emo, hardcore, and alt. I’m super excited to work with KRUX to help bring you all the best music and shows possible!
Hey everyone!! I’m Naomi, the Content Director, once again (we're running it back). I am in charge of all the online content, but I couldn't do it alone! I love my little team of interns BAD. This is my fourth year with KRUX and my fourth year at NMSU studying journalism with a minor in creative writing and social media management. I’m so excited to return to online content this year, I’ve always been into marketing, social media, and I’ve always loved music. I listen to a bit of everything (when it comes to country I have an open mind, but if it doesn’t pass the vibe check, it doesn’t pass the vibe check), I really enjoy folk and blues, indie, pop, hip-hop, R&B, and when they mix. I’m always watching movies or TV shows and annoying everyone with what I have to say. I love stories, reading, and writing. I work too many jobs, but I'm here to have a good time!

Some of my favorite genres currently are alt rock/indie rock, garage rock revival, electroclash, new rave, post punk, emo, and art pop.

This is my second semester as a DJ, where I love to play whatever I want on my show, Music From Mars. Since I was little, I’ve always enjoyed music and I have a lot of fond memories of dancing to the records my parents would play from their collection. My favorite genres to listen to are R&B, retro, and pop! In my spare time, I love to play The Sims 4, watch movies with hot people in them, and read romance novels.

Hello lobotomites! My name is Michael Friberg, & I host Wall of Noise, Wednesdays @ 10-11pm. This is my last year at NMSU, and I’ll be graduating with a bachelor in Accounting this spring (if you can believe that…) I’m originally from Ruidoso, New Mexico; I’m sure you can imagine how miserable the heat makes me. Music is VERY important to me, and I think it’s one of the best ways to make a connection with someone, whether it be a classmate or friend. I hope you loyal constant listeners stay listening, because I intend to keep the music playing.

My show, "The Stoney Session" is where I play all of my nostalgic alternative metal bangers! I’ve loved listening to heavy music since I was a kid with my dad. He passed away earlier this year, but I still love to listen to our favorite kind of music, and I'm happy to bring my music taste to y’all.
I'm a junior biochem and Spanish major with hopes of becoming a dentist. I'm DJ'ing for KRUX, setting up a donation drive for Pre-Dent, or simply hanging out with a friend, music's always gotta be a part of the equation.
Hello everybody ! My name is Melanie and I’m from Anthony, New Mexico. I'm currently a Junior at NMSU and I am double majoring in journalism and political science. During my free time I enjoy going to the gym and dilly dallying. I honestly listen to a bit of everything, but I got to say my heart has a special place for psychedelic, boleros, and spanish rock music.
Holis (again) gang I’m Rubí! The only things you need to know about me is that i’ve been musically inclined all my life and that I’m a big fan of people who ride electric unicycles on campus.

Heyyy yall I’m Adrian and I’m the voice behind Downtown Girl. I’m a senior journalism major with a minor in sustainability and anthropology. This is my second and last year at KRUX so TRUST we’re gonna have a good time until then. I honestly play whatever I’m in the mood for but if you like artists like Blood Orange, Radiohead, or Surf Curse then this is the show for you. If I’m not playing my usual playlist then I probably am hosting some random theme I came up with to inspire me for that week. A little about me, I love to bake, hike, and watch video essays on YouTube so come hear me ramble over different media in-between songs. I can’t wait to be the soundtrack to your nights Tuesdays from 10-11pm. Love ya :)
