About Me
My three pillars for succes:
Branding - how do you identify your brand? What sets you apart? What makes you unique?
Quality product - your music, your live performance, your offerings overall
Marketing and Sales - how we’re selling your offerings and you as an artist
I’ve spent over 15 years in music and business, wearing lots of hats along the way. WHY did I want to work in artist development? It’s pretty simple: I’ve had so much help along the way – amazing mentors, guides, role models I looked up to - that I wanted to find a way to give back. When I realized how many people came to me for advice in the music space, often around the business side of things, I knew I had a special gift. And when I put it out into the world that I was going to be working 1:1 with artists helping them achieve their goals, I had dozens of people wanting to speak with me within a matter of days.
I’m here to guide you on your music career journey, no matter where you are in that process. You could be just starting out, or you could be a full time musician who simply needs some direction.
With the right amount of hard work, dedication,
and strategy, we can get you where you want to go, together.
