MUSIC INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE CONSULTANT

ABOUT ME


Professional Background

Independent Music.

Engineered for Revenue.

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

Over the past 20+ years I’ve worked across music, technology, and digital rights — from underground mixtape culture to global creator platforms.

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.
