Dan Herman’s Summary

I'm one of the founding webcasters of Live365, and the creator of a highly original freeform, freeflowing internet radio program that spotlights top indie/unsigned/DIY/touring artists worldwide. In my long-term scope I am to have a true studio with interactive focus..including call-in, guests, interviews.

I am active with a NYC booking agency that specializes in showcase events for up-coming, indie/underground songwriters and bands.

I'm also in a situation where I'm likely to move by April 2010, unless the right financial situaton presents itself, in which case I may stay based in NYC. Outside of this, my relocation options remain open. For relocation I am seeking places with some arts community and interaction and a way to further my work in both webcasting/podcasting, and/or my place in the music industry

Within this same time frame going back to the 90's I've been underwriting this work as admin/support/research specialist in a variety of industries, including investments, finance, manufacturing, operations.
