More about me
I'm a freelance journalist and analyst, focused on how technology transforms the business of music and culture. I've been writing since fall 2015, and have regular digital and print bylines in publications including Billboard, Forbes, Music Business Worldwide, Pitchfork, Resident Advisor and the Columbia Journalism Review. I've been invited to speak at over 25 conferences around the world, and received the Reeperbahn Festival’s inaugural award for Music Business Journalist of the Year in 2017 at age 21.

I also run my own music-tech newsletter Water & Music (part of the Hot Pod network), which reaches over 4,500 subscribers biweekly, and have been hosting an interview podcast of the same name since February 2019. I'm relatively new to audio, but edit all of my own podcast episodes and have a background in music production and editing on GarageBand and Logic Pro. I'm open to any opportunities as a host, editor, reporter and transcriber, particularly for podcasts related to media, entertainment and business.
