Co-Founder & Creative Director at RESIDENT
August 1, 2024 - Present
Resident is a songwriting brand and creative community built to empower artists and producers through collaboration, development, and shared creativity. As Co-Founder and Creative Director, I lead the artistic direction, production, and growth of the brand. We successfully received Arts Council England funding to deliver four week-long residential songwriting camps, each bringing together artists, producers, and songwriters in an immersive creative environment. Alongside a small core team, I have produced across all four camps, supporting artists in writing, recording, and developing their sound. Beyond our residentials, we host events that continue to grow our network of creatives. Our vision is to become a leading songwriting community - a space where creativity thrives, careers are developed, and collaboration drives artistic excellence.
