Artist Booking/Relations at Greg Oliver Agency
Greater Nashville Area
My background is based predominately in the Entertainment Industry, but mostly music related. I have served in role such as; PR, Marketing, Sales, Sponsorships, Radio, Promotions, Acquisitions, Tours, Television Festivals and Fundraising. I have also had the honor to manage large to mid sized teams in these arenas of my career as well.
I truly value people and creativity. With these two elements combined I believe a lot can be accomplished. I believe that my strongest attribute to anything that I am a part of would be my ability to build, strengthen, develop and serve relationships properly without abusing them as well. I value relationships and see them as a way of life and believe that every good idea or business deal points to a strong relationship.
