With over 20 years in the marketing industry, I've worked in agencies, collaborated with major brands, and served as an independent consultant. Today, I act as a Fractional CMO and HubSpot Super Admin for select clients, specializing in helping content creators, entrepreneurs, and small teams unlock the potential of CRM, marketing automation, and AI tools to drive efficiency and growth. My support ranges from strategic guidance and technical execution to media production at various levels. Beyond my consulting business, I'm a passionate content creator and entrepreneur, dedicated to exploring all types of music festivals across the country. I get behind the scenes to uncover the vibrant culture of what I see as the "trade shows" of the live music industry. Estimates suggest that between 300 and 400 music festivals took place across the United States alone in 2024. In the same year, the U.S. music festival market was valued at approximately USD 681.13 million, with projections indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.0% through 2031. Globally, the music festival market was estimated at $3 billion, with expectations to reach $20 billion by 2032. The work blends my deep love of live music and media production, capturing the essence of festivals through documentary-style interviews with attendees, vendors, artists, producers, and venue owners. I share this journey on my YouTube channel, featuring venue-specific playlists, and through a weekly podcast offering news, commentary, and insights into the festival world. The goal of the Music Festivals Podcast brand is to help live music enthusiasts get to know music festivals, festival venues and campgrounds before they go.
