Creativity has been the constant thread weaving together my passions and career paths. From my first piano lesson at age 5, a passion for music evolved into years of storytelling, community building, and discovery. In high school, I developed a love for public speaking and audio production through morning announcements; an interest that later sparked experiences as a stand-up comedian, audiobook narrator, and podcast producer. This hands-on, multidisciplinary approach has shaped a career spanning music blogging, artist management, social media, community development, and hospitality. For nearly a decade, I independently built and operated Dusty Organ, a global hub for music discovery. I wrote over 4,000 blog posts, photographed more than 300 artists, hosted live music events, launched a podcast, and grew an audience of 10,000+ music fans - entirely through organic, meaningful engagement. My international rolodex and creative digital media experience are pillars to my continued success, as I later transitioned into artist management, overseeing everything from festival bookings and content strategy to fan engagement and brand development for independent artists. One common link to all my work is my genuine passion for connecting with others and collaboration. Ultimately, building relationships and fostering growth is at the core everything I do. Today, I'm exploring new opportunities beyond the music industry where I can bring my creativity, storytelling skills, and collaborative spirit to new challenges. Whether it’s building a brand, launching digital campaigns, or bringing big ideas to life, I’m excited to contribute to a mission-driven team that values innovation and community.
