ABOUT ME


Professional Background

Music Industry Entrepreneur, Digital Rights Specialist, Catalog Builder & Advisor

For more than 20 years I've worked at the intersection of music, technology and intellectual property, helping music companies, rights holders and entrepreneurs create, grow and monetise valuable music assets.

I build scalable monetisation systems for independent music ecosystems, partnering with labels, creators, and rightsholders to turn catalog into long-term revenue.

No smoke. No shortcuts. Just systems that work.


Bridging Music, Technology, and Rights

I’ve operated in many parts of the industry, from creator and artist management to label A&R and digital rights management. Today I focus on building infrastructure that helps independent music scale online, while growing a global community of 80,000+ musicians through Indiy and contributing to the industry through panels, guest lectures, and advisory work.
