TL/DR: I'm the person you want negotiating your contracts, getting your intellectual property in front of paying customers, discussing music topics on your podcast and to write your band biography. During the day I act as a Content Rights Coordinator for the E.W. Scripps Company, working on checking contracts for exploitation rights, updating information in our database and in Wide Orbit, and planning next moves as far as data organization. In the past I have been known to negotiate contracts; buy and sell sub-rights and translations; champion fair use, open access, and accessibility; occasionally acquire a book; and handle all legal issues for the university presses under the eye of various General Counsel. On nights and weekends I'm a freelance writer and website content manager. I've written for publications both locally in Athens and far flung across the globe. Though music is my main thing, I also dabble in lit crit, legal studies, and general non-fiction storytelling. I, like everyone in town, am working on a book. Ask me about it. When not writing, I do grunt work for websites like updating dead links, correcting spelling errors, etc.During college, I promoted multiple local shows, created my own music oriented website, organized special events, interviewed musical legends, built a strong network of creative individuals, held down a job, hobby, volunteer position, freelance job, and two internships as I was studying for my Journalism degree, and established myself as a dependable, hard worker capable of meeting the strictest of deadlines, be they for one of my freelance writing gigs or an important upcoming event.Since college, I have had content featured on NPR, managed a hoard of interns, overseen a department of college student workers, grown my web-based organization, and started a novel.
