I am an experienced professional musician’s assistant with about 2 years experience as an assistant to a Grammy winning musician. As a recent graduate from NYU with a Master’s in Music Business and also a violinist, I have always held a great passion in music and have made it my mission to help musicians reach their goals!
In my position, I have been the liaison between the musician and their manager, publicist, etc. in scheduling and inquiries, I have experience in preparing and executing effective contracts (roughly 30/year), and have successfully coordinated a 5- city national tour for a 6 member band. I’ve created riders, advanced over 50 concerts, created itineraries for tours and appearances, as well as handled CD releases (physical and digital), shipping merchandise, and more.
Not only am I knowledgeable in administrative tasks, I also have skills in graphic design, online marketing (newsletters), creating videos, social media maintenance, e-commerce and updating artist websites.
