Other Projects
In additional to my work experience, I have engaged in several projects for nonprofit organizations as well as my own personal growth I love highlighting to show my passion and the wide range of ways I am able to apply my skills across all areas of the live entertainment industry.
Playlists for a Change
With Playlists for a Change, I curate a minimum of two playlists a month highlighting a social issue that is important to me. Each playlist is a minimum of ten songs, contains original cover art created using Canva, and is accompanied by an article explaining the importance of the topic and how each song fits underneath the issue awareness is being raised for.
​
Listen to the playlists I have created below:
