Job Type:
Artist Relations and Development Representative, Marketing Staffer, Advertising Account Executive, Recording Engineer
Apprentice, Tour Coordinator, Concert Promotions, A&R Coordinator, Promotion Staffer.
skills:
Worked for a direct sales/marketing company based out of Nashville, TN. I was responsible for hiring and training new
recruits. I am experienced in direct sales/advertising for Fortune 500/Fortune 1000 companies. I led a team of 6 field
reps through cross-training phases of company’s management training program. I am skilled in managing advertising
campaigns and satellite offices. I also built and developed interviewing skills from managerial perspective.
comments:
I held a leadership position and was awarded the company's "Top Leader Award" in recognition of superior performance,
attitude and overall ability to lead by example. However, I've realized this is not my calling in life. I have dreamed
of breaking into the music industry since I began playing music in the second grade. I moved to Nashville to get
involved in the industry but got caught up in the limelight of owning my own sales company, which fell through when the
company went out of business. My motivation, charisma, work ethic and ambition drive me to achieve corporate and
personal goals. A dynamic sense of humor allows me to build personal yet professional relationships with added trust
between clients and co-workers. You need me on your team!!!

Job Type:
I am currently seeking positions as either a staff or independant assistant/first engineer, production assistant, or
technical engineer.
skills:
I have experience both at MTSU and in the "real" world as well. I completed an internship at Alex the Great Recording
with Brad Jones and Robin Eaton, whose credits include Jill Sobule, Amy Rigby, Swan Dive, Yo La
Tengo, The Shazam, and Butterfly Boucher among others. After completion of that internship I was hired on a few sessions including one for
production of a track to potentially be used in the movie Shrek II. I have also assisted Eli Shaw at his studio in
East Nashville, and have done some independent tech work like making snakes and doing analog alignment.
While at MTSU I worked several semesters in the tech shop and my last semester was the head student tech for the SSL
4000G room.
I have basic electronics and acoustics knowledge, and am up on most tech skills such as analog alignment and basic
circuit troubleshooting.
I am currently employed at SAE Institute in Nashville as a Supervisor for students and house technical engineer. That
being said, I am also trying to start a career as an independent Engineer/Producer.
comments:
My long-term career goals are to become a independent engineer/producer and/or studio owner. At this point I run a
Nuendo based computer set-up with a Motu soundcard. If provided with broadcast wave files I can render edits to basic
tracks from Pro-Tools and other software.
I am always interested in new bands for possible production agreements and/or engineering
oportunities.
Feel free to contact me anytime with the information provided.
Thank you.
