What I'm looking for

I seek entry to mid-level roles in music production, audio technology, or entertainment management where I can apply hands-on learning, contribute creatively, and grow into leadership roles within a collaborative, growth-oriented company.

I am an aspiring music producer and entertainment professional with hands-on retail and hospitality management experience and a diploma in broadcasting and audio production in progress. I bring leadership, fast learning, strong customer service, and practical audio/recording familiarity from my education and varied roles in retail, food service, and childcare.

I have driven sales and operations as a retail store manager, trained staff as a certified trainer in food service and quick service environments, and supported classroom routines as an assistant teacher. I am motivated to grow in music business, audio technology, and entertainment management, and I pursue creative projects alongside structured operational responsibilities.
