Life update:
Not that anyone asked, but this is what I’ve been up to :) My birthday is tomorrow so naturally i’m feeling reflective. I haven’t shared much over the last year or so but 8 months ago I started working full time for @stouttent ! I mostly work from home and then go onsite to our larger events. After being one foot in, one foot out for a few years, I quit the corporate world in 2022 to fully work in the music industry and what a journey it’s been. After working at The Concourse Project for 2 years (love you forever & always💗) on top of being an independent contractor working 13 festivals last year, I feel grateful to have this balance of working from home now and still getting to travel to events.
I started intentionally going to shows in 2009 so for the last 16 years live music shaped me and introduced me to the majority of people in my life. Being even a small part of bringing these experiences to life for others fulfills me on a deep level. I love my team, I love my boss, I love the work we’re doing and I am super thankful for my life right now, despite the climate of the world. I’m in Asheville turning 31 and thinking how proud my 21 year old self would be.
Here’s some photos from Coachella, Forest, Bonnaroo and Yahn dawn 💗
We did it! We built an art piece.
This incredible team made build week immaculate. We really did that 💥 this build (and the entire burn really) was truly a testament to how important the people around you are. You can co-create the biggest version of your life when you are working on the right team.
Traveling alone as a woman is one of the most empowering experiences. Growing up with parents in different states taught me how to live out of a suitcase and studying abroad in college taught me how big the world is. I don’t know about you but I want to see as much of it as I can ❤️
What a privilege this year was. 2025 was not the year of ups and downs for me, it was least tumultous year I can remember in my personal life. This was the year I unapologetically chose myself. My career, my dog, my family, my friends. Aside from the climate of the world, It was a year of peace for me. I worked really fucking hard, I said no a lot and I moved to a new state. I spent 70 days on the road at 8 festivals and worked from home otherwise. We completed 26 events as a team. This was the first year I wasn’t distracted by a relationship or trying to prove myself to others. I feel more settled into myself than ever before. I am more proud of myself than I’ve ever been 💗 and I had a hell of a lot of fun.
I’ve always said “I love being alive”, but I really really do. I hope I get to do this for many more years. Thank you to everyone who shares this human experience with me.
Final show of my first full season with Stout! We all worked so hard this season and we got to celebrate 💗 silly goose meters were at a high 🪿 so thankful for this company and all these people
Shoutout @parcelsmusic@sci_official@itsborne@djpee.wee@jadecicada@odd_mob and @glass_beams for being my favorite sets 🥲💗
Exercised my use of free will and MOVED TO DENVER!
After 7 big, beautiful, expansive years in Austin, Neelie and I moved to Colorado last week! I want to thank all my friends in Austin for supporting me in this. What an odd experience; to wish a friend well even though it means seeing them less in your every day life. It’s impossible to encompass all the feelings I feel about leaving Austin into an Instagram caption, so I just wont.
What I say can say though is that I know for certain it was time for this new chapter and I’m just so lucky to have had the life I did in Austin. Here’s to Neelie and Jordie’s Colorado era 🏔️
A very conceited post because I got to attend a festival and not work! I went to ACL Sunday weekend 1 and it was exactly what I needed, the perfect reminder of why I work festivals. How lucky are we to spend whole days, whole weekends, whole careers around music 🙏🏼
AND I got to spend the whole day with my bestie @mae_tanee 💫🙏🏼
Spent a week in Nosara with some inspirational baddies. Thank you @mae_tanee for this gift and for the gift of your sisterhood all these years. Happy birthday woman 💗
