About me
I have spent the last 4 years working with the world’s largest music artists, DJs and management companies producing events, managing promotional trips and delivering concierge needs - never a dull moment.
I love a challenge and take great pride in my work, always navigating through difficult situations with a positive mindset. My ability to remain calm and think logically in high pressured situations, paired with my acute attention to detail has landed me three promotions at Universal Music within the last three years, something I’m hugely proud of and worked extremely hard to achieve.
