Message

At LA Music Group, I co-founded the organization and take responsibility for strategy, operations, and marketing. I manage audio production from live sound and editing through final track delivery.

I also oversee studio scheduling and booking, coordinating calendars to make the most of studio availability. I coordinate weekly schedules, delegate tasks, and handle office supply procurement.

Earlier, I managed operations at Apothecary and purchasing and inventory operations at Green Valley Collective. At Green Valley Collective, I managed bulk cannabis purchasing and inventory planning for eight partnered dispensaries, maintaining records across METRC and POS systems.
