About

*Known and revered for being adaptable and flexible; humorous and perceptive; innovative thinking and bringing unique ideas, strategies and operations to any table. Seeking positions in Event & Festival Production, Talent Buying, Project Management, Marketing (Experiential, Partnership, Field), Artist & Talent Relations* As a passionate music industry professional for over 20 years, I have ventured the worlds of radio, journalism, event & festival production, develop up & coming artists and have become a tastemaker and leader in my community. Building strong relationships with artists, managers and agents, I have been perfecting the art of being a liaison and champion of bridging the gap between brands and culture. When I'm not at work or online, I'm camping in the High Desert or the Sierras, constantly a student of how to enrich lives through mindfulness.
