My educational background in music business and extensive experience running a band meant I was always going to get into the back-end of the industry. I started off running an agency, titled Ridiculous Music, where I had to be the bridge between venue businesses and performing musicians. Roles included promoting events and managing logistics to ensure they were successful. Over time, it transitioned into a full-blown recording studio. We’ve collaborated with big names in the industry like Niko Is, CURREN$Y, Victor Wooten and Michael Winslow.Accomplishments: Grew the business from the ground up to with six employees, with a six-figure revenue.

I started up an agency initially branded as NVP Design, with a focus on designing websites for medium-sized companies in need of a valid web presence. Scope of work included copywriting, Search Engine Optimization, and content creation. Along the way, I transitioned into social media marketing as a means of improving on aforementioned web presences. Helped brands develop social media strategies to improve online client base engagement.

I managed a band of six musicians. As the producer, I owned all the content, and had to learn how to manage people effectively, while taking individuals fails and wins into consideration. Created an extensive library of content, some of which have been sold to other singers. Managed all aspects of the business. Planned and went on tour. Created content led to working relationships with several industry big names.
