About me
I am very grateful to have been surrounded by, and worked alongside in various capacities with a diverse network of artists, promoters, label heads and cultural content makers. In my time as both a project manager and account manager at DICE, I’ve learned that accurate data, creativity and a clear methodology is key to providing effective management support. With a rapidly changing cultural landscape, it is important to maintain nuanced, accurate and high standards that actively empower communities and foster agency.
