Experience

Swamp Records logo

Swamp Records

I started at Swamp Records as a freshman photographer with a passion for music and visuals, eager to support Gainesville’s local scene. Through consistent creative contributions and a strong understanding of music marketing, I quickly took on more responsibility—eventually becoming a marketing team member, multimedia lead for artist teams, and later Co-President of the entire organization. Swamp has been the heartbeat of my college experience, where I’ve grown from a content creator into a creative leader who now mentors others and shapes the label’s direction. I’ve worked hands-on with artists, directed TikTok campaigns, run viral PR stunts, led photo/video shoots, and now oversee our executive board.

At Degy, I specialized in booking and sales especially within the parks and recreation market, focusing on colleges, venues, and event spaces. I researched and identified prospective clients to create new booking opportunities, helping to connect artists and entertainers with the right audiences. I participated regularly in weekly booking calls and strategy meetings, contributing insights based on performance metrics and assisting with planning upcoming events. This role sharpened my skills in client outreach, market research, data-mining and collaborative team communication in a fast-paced environment.

I actively work to connect with clients and negotiate deals, aiming to help both the artists grow and the company expand its roster.
