Ever since I was a little kid, I've always had an interest in and a love for music. I remember always wanting to go over and play on my neighbor’s piano and learn how to play the drums after Hanson emerged on the scene with MMMBop. My parents were always playing songs on the radio and quizzing me on who the artists were. This was mostly a game to them. Little did they know how much of an impact that made on my interest in music today.

 

My first taste of working within the music biz was at Terra Fermata; A music venue in my hometown of Stuart, FL. My time at Terra Fermata was filled with excitement and magic as I dipped my toes into the music business pool. It didn’t take long until I was crafting deals, negotiating riders, stocking green rooms, and throwing concerts from start to finish. I really owe a lot of my success to my mentor and venue owner, Ron Hart. He showed me the ropes of how a venue was operated and how concerts were curated. He gave me the creative freedom to explore and invite musical acts to the venue. With his trust and guidance throughout the booking process, combined with both of our excitement for a good act, the shows at Terra Fermata were always a slam dunk. But all good things must come to an end.

 

After the sale of Terra Fermata, a string of hurricanes, and a desire to move to a new city... I packed my bags and headed north to Pittsburgh, PA where I found my new home within the Patron Technology family at ShowClix.
