…so, who am I?
This is who I am:
- Former music journalist and photographer for a few well-known publications.
- Gave it up to dabble in event production; associate produced a few major festivals.
- Quit that to work in the marketing department of a Big 4 label.
- Fell into an upper management job at an indie label. I oversee sales, marketing, A & R, and hiring. (Don’t tell, but this is my favorite job!)
This is why I’m here:
- I’m sick of getting horrible emails and resumes from potential employees and interns.
- Spoiler alert: if you find my email address and send me mp3s, you will be blacklisted. That shit is really annoying.
- I think my broad industry experience could actually be beneficial. This sounds both tacky and pompous, but I’ve been there and I like answering questions — plus, I’m looking forward to ranting about what not to do if you want to work in the music industry.
