THE NOISE
Messages from Friends:
You should grow up and get a real job.
How I responded:
It's hard to hear noise from people like your friends because they're supposed to be the ones backing you up when everyone else shuts you down. After college I worked as a server, bartender, barista and even a baby-sitter. It was all because I believed in what I was doing so much that I knew I had to continue to follow my dreams. Planning music events after college gave me so much real life experience into what I do now and I was able to positively affect so many young artists along the way.

Experiences and challenges that shaped me

The only experience I had after college was serving food, so starting my own business and moving overseas took a lot of time and work. I literally sold everything I had in order to have enough money to move and fulfill my goals.
