About Me

I've been working in the music industry for over 15 years.

Since I was a teenager, I've surrounded myself with music and I've constantly strived to always work on, in, or around music. From that mentality and attitude, I've been able to not only forge my education around music, but also play, create, produce, and advocate for music, from my internships, running live sound for bands in small and large venues, to my work in the studio with singer-songwriters and artists from around Colorado. The past 15 years have been a journey of excitement, fun, and heartbreak.

Because I grew up playing music, I know what it feels like to be a "Starving Artist." I've played shows to three people in the audience, hustled selling tickets for scummy promoters, and wrote hours of material for zero people to listen to it. I've been in most people's shoes regarding being a creative mind in the music industry.

However, I've also been on the other side. Gathering artists to put on a show at a local venue, Running sound and lights during live shows for Diva-Headed musicians who always "Know What's Best", Cleaning vocal performances for hours to have an artist not want to pay for the work.This industry is a symbiotic animal that needs the cooperation of both sides of the coin to foster success.

Music Business

The one thing every artist loathes about the Music Industry is the Business side of the equation. Artists have so much going on that once you start piling on marketing, account, music registrations, PROs, and all the complex chaos, even I want to throw my hands up in the air and say "F it!" However, the business side of my brain never lets that happen (Thankfully). I have a bachelor's in Music Business from The University of Colorado and I've successfully launched 5 businesses in the music industry. I've helped over a dozen artists with the music business, creating LLCs, obtaining tax information, as well as Marketing plans, Release plans, Negotiating contracts, and protecting their music.As I mentioned earlier, this S*** is complicated.
