About me
I am currently a 4th-year student studying Music and Media Management, with over 3 years worth experience working in the music and events industry. I am an enthusiastic, hard-working music professional, with experience at MIDEM and in client management for an independent UK distributor. I have a creative history in performance with a passion for photography and design. Despite this, I am able to apply a statistical and logical mind to any task. Currently seeking graduate opportunities within the music/events industry.

  • MIDEM Artist Representation
    MIDEM Artist RepresentationA detailed A&R process took place to identify suitable acts to represent at the MIDEM conference in Cannes (June 2018). Once the musicians/bands/artists were confirmed 10 - 15 meetings a day were set up with publishers, managers, and music supervisors, pitching the artists' work under representation. A sync deal for the act Niterunner was closed, a brother-sister synth-pop trio based in Brisbane.
  • GigIn App
    GigIn AppWe created an application whereby you could see where all the local restaurants, bars, clubs, hotels and of course, live venues were situated. Our ultimate goal was to enhance the gigging experience, making it as effortless as possible. For this to be successful we had to undertake the following elements: - Run a fully branded marketing campaign - Develop the application - Create a successful and professional launch event
