Over two years with a micro-budget of $5,000, I published three comedy shorts, three music videos, six music talk show episodes, one EP, and thirteen singles across major streaming platforms. With a bottom-up network alliance approach, I take representation, authenticity, ethics, fair trade, and fair use seriously when I seek resourceful solutions for production and value creation. I mix traditional long-standing forms with novel ideas and experimentation to create and market art, grow capital, and reach audiences.
I have six years of professional experience in:
marketing, project management, social media content creation
tapping into marketing data analytics, KPIs, SEO, audience personas to inform packaging and distribution
developing strategies to engage with mercurial social media trends
I host the music and comedy talk show Moon Apothecary Radio. You can stream episodes on Spotify, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, and YouTube.
I have seven years of experience in arts programming and production, including costume, prop and production design for film, social media broadcasting, virtual and in-person events and workshops.
The Pony Press record label was created in August 2024.
Since 2023, I have produced and recorded music in a home recording studio as a solo artist known as audworld.
I am always seeking artists to collaborate with to make music together.
“I want to help make people’s lives their masterpiece. Simultaneously a dreamer and a realist, I come up with creative solutions to ground dreams in reality.”
