Summary

I am a soon-to-be music business graduate with six years of experience playing guitar, a serious love for country music and live performances, and a genuine passion for the behind-the-scenes work that brings music to life. While I am still new to the industry and its processes, I am a fast learner who thrives in creative environments and cares deeply about supporting the artists and industry. Whether it's assisting with a tight tour, managing media content on the road, or just making things easier for the team, I bring a genuine attitude, strong work ethic, and a care for the craft.
