Sheree Burns’s Summary

In my professional life, I've always worked in higher level administrative careers. I've spent the last 8.5 years working in the healthcare staffing field, and it's been very rewarding. I am currently beginning my Master's of Science in Health Law. I'm a go-getter with the personality to talk to anyone. I'm well-organized and have confidence in myself and my capabilities. Most recently, I stepped into a director-level Human Resources position with a physical rehabilitation facility.

In my personal life, my passion has always been the music business. Finally in 2004, I melded them into one....I started Spire Records because I believe in the underdog story that is the independent record label. I'm the devil's advocate in favor of major record labels, but I understand the immense need for independent labels....so I found a fantastic act and starting working with them, started my label through my management association with them, and we've been working hard ever since. The band is A Course Of Action from western NC, and I have no doubt that they are the next big thing :)

My ultimate goal would be to make the connections necessary to move the band to the next level and secure them the appropriate personnel to protect them as they reach for the stars. I would love an opportunity to work in the tour management profession or alongside an established manager working with high level acts. I love to travel, and touring would be fantastic!
