Summary
I am seeking a role in the music industry that I can put my heart and soul into and make live music venues a place that people want to gather. I am a passionate music lover who plays multiple instruments, goes to many concerts and has an extensive collection of records. I am also on a learning path through PCC studying Music as a Career. This program has taught me how networking, booking, and planning shows work in the music industry. I am known for being a team player and have been asked to lead teams on tasks outside of core work responsibilities in my current role as a journeyman meat cutter at The Meating Place. I am very adaptable and quick at learning new skills which I am eager to put into place to uplift the live music experience for all.
