A native of Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Huguley brings a strong foundation in communications, public policy and stakeholder engagement. During her time as a BCA intern, she played a key role in supporting member communications and legislative outreach, earning high praise for her professionalism, initiative and strong grasp of the organization’s mission, BCA shared.
“We’re proud to welcome Reagan back to BCA in an official capacity,” said Helena Duncan, BCA president and CEO. “She consistently impressed us during her internship with her drive, communication skills, and understanding of our advocacy efforts. Her return is a testament to her talent and to the value of investing in young professionals who share our commitment to advancing Alabama’s business climate.”
