What I'm looking for

I seek collaborative roles in A&R, publishing, or production where I can grow artist rosters, manage catalogs, secure sync placements, and drive digital distribution and marketing.

I am an A&R professional and independent artist specializing in electronic music production, catalog management, and music marketing. I bring over three years of hands-on experience creating original electronic tracks and building artist brands.

As an independent artist and publisher, I manage release strategy, metadata, rights registration with PROs, and promotional campaigns while leveraging digital rights platforms such as YouTube Content ID, Spotify, and Apple Music. My A&R internship at Direnote Media involved scouting talent, outreach, and collaborating with marketing and digital teams to refine release strategies and grow artist relations.

I focus on growing catalogs, securing sync and media placements, and developing partnerships that increase engagement and revenue. I am organized, detail-oriented, and driven to connect music with audiences and industry opportunities.
