About

I am a recent college graduate from the University of Alabama achieving my Bachelors Degree in four years. I grew up working in the business of mattress retail stores primarily focusing on sales. As a sales manager I have gained vast experience in all aspects of management which have taught me scheduling, organizational, leadership and people skills. In addition to these skills I developed a business mindset that has allowed me not only to strategically work around obstacles but to complete and close a sale. I am a hardworking and driven individual looking to one day become an artist manager. I am wiling to do whatever it takes to begin gaining experience in the music industry.
