For 2017's Oxjam Manchester Takeover, I'll be responsible for organising the festival, which includes recruiting core team members and volunteers, booking venues and artists, arranging fundraising events in the run up to the festival and promoting the festival itself, among other duties in this voluntary position. Taking place over a weekend in October, the Oxjam Manchester Festival is all about raising money for Oxfam through one of lifes greatest joys - live music.

In the summer of 2015, I established my own music publicity company with the simple aim of educating myself and gaining new experience with the music industry's PR sector. With little experience and few opportunities in Manchester, I was determined to carve my own path by working closely and passionately with artists whose music I genuinely loved. As the company's apidae aesthetic would suggest, Colony PR's ethos was built on that of the attitude of the cooperative worker bee, also a symbol of my home city Manchester. By working closely with all my clients, the tailor-made digital media campaigns for singles, EPs and albums are aligned to the goals of the artist/band/their representative, to ensure to best results for each release.Since Colony PR's inception, I have had the pleasure to work with artists Nerve Leak, Lex Low, Xander Ghost, Alex Sloane, Druzy, Katy Cunningham, Druzy, Mere Child, ACTRESE, Pola Rise, Zoey Lily, Richard Walters, Louis Baker, Autumn Chorus, Me For Queen, San Felu, Failr, Glints and MICKY. In addition to this, we’ve also collaborated closely with organisations like Mere Child Music, Factory Flaws, Aston Rd., Gener8 Ventures, Gold + Grey, and Pilot Light.https://soundcloud.com/colonyprhttps://www.facebook.com/colonypr/https://twitter.com/colony_pr

Oxjam is a national event that encourages teams of volunteers across the country to organise their own festivals in order to raise essential funds for the globally recognised charity Oxfam.As the Sponsorship Coordinator, my role was to make our festival, with a non-existent budget, possible. Over the months, I contacted local businesses to donate whatever they could to our cause, whether it was vouchers, prizes, useful skills, their spaces for events etc. The most notable donations in 2016 were 100 canvas bags to be branded with the Oxjam Manchester logo and sold to raise money for Oxfam and our very own festival beer to be sold across our venues with proceeds going directly to the charity.My other roles for the festival included PR Assistant, Fundraiser and Venue Manager.By the end of our three-day festival in Chorlton, we raised £3,000 for Oxfam.

Shortly after creating my own music blog on Tumblr, I was invited by the then current New Music Writer to join the Unrecorded team as a writer. During my time at the US-based international music publication, I reviewed singles, EPs, albums and live shows. In my last year at Unrecorded, I was promoted to the position of New Music Editor, where I had to review each post before publication and had final say on the content written by a team of ten writers. Due to various time zones of the publications (running of EST) and a worldwide base of writers, I had to be extremely organized and consistent in my editorial duties.Most recently, I was invited back to write a guest review of one single and one album, along with all the other alumni, to celebrate ten years of Unrecorded and close the highly influential music site.

As the music streaming service created for Tesco's tablet Huddl, blinbox Music provided a unique opportunity to learn about how a streaming app functions behind the scenes. After an initial one month internship, a new role was created especially for me to act as a bridge between the Music and the Marketing departments. As you'd imagine, there were plenty of tasks I had to handle, which included co-managing their social media, advising on the look and content of their website, writing the majority of the website's content, creating playlists for blinbox's users and coming up with new marketing ideas for the app.I think the highest testament of my success as a Music Marketing Intern, was during my time at blinkbox I was also given the responsibility of mentoring two fellow interns. I would introduce them to the system and provide them with daily tasks to complete.It was a highly educational experience and one that helped me realise my own strengths and areas for improvement after finishing my internship.
