About Me

About Me

I'm a freelance copywriter and a recent graduate from the University of Rhode Island aspiring to become a media journalist in the entertainment industry. I also have aspirations to eventually work in a Marketing or A&R division of a music publishing company or major label.

With my dual degree in Communications and Journalism, I aim to become a premier resource for clients (companies/artists) and their audiences. I have a passion for writing, art, and music with an interest in helping clients bring their ideas to life through creative expression.

 

Throughout my time on FM radio, I have learned the importance of creating progressive public conversation around music, art, design, and entertainment. I am now seeking the opportunity to assist companies and artists in the execution of their creative endeavors. This includes print and website copy, album rollouts, merchandise, creative design, touring, etc ; along with insight on how this art can be released and through which mediums it would be most effective.

My entire life is influenced by music and fashion so I would relish the opportunity to use my relationship building skills, writing skills, eye for design, and ear for music to help clients enhance the consumer experience.

I have learned how to convey my message through various channels of media including print, television, radio, and social media. I have honed my skills over the past few years in emceeing, writing, and designing in order to prepare for my next opportunity.

 

In an era where so much of the country is underrepresented, I am eager for an opportunity to use my acumen for music and design as a vessel for clients to express themselves through creative phenomena.

 

Whether with an interview, assistance on a tour, an album, or cooperating on a capsule collection, I will always have an interest for identifying the deeper meaning behind a client's work and conveying it to the public. I have always thrived in the role of being the medium between the artist and the people. ​
