Artist Management
For over a decade I have been working closely with boundary pushing artists big and small. Artist Management was a natural progression of the work I did as a music journalist, a publicist, and an A&R — telling artist stories, creating resources, building audience, and pushing art forward.
Cleo Reed
For five years I’ve worked closely with Cleo Reed to develop a creative strategy, brand identity, and business structure. I’ve managed the production and release of two full-length albums including an exclusive vinyl release with Vinyl Me, Please. I have co-produced the performance Cleo Reed’s performance art piece Black American Circus at the Brooklyn Museum and Afropunk. I produced a two month long gallery exhibition and event series in collaboration with Recess Arts. I’ve led digital marketing strategies and managed a team of creatives, booking agents, publicists, and more.
In July 2025 Cleo released their sophomore album CUNTRY, receiving widespread acclaim from Pitchfork, NPR, Brooklyn Magazine, Stereogum, Soundfynd, Spotify, and more.
Black Grapefruit
During my time managing the genre-defying duo Black Grapefruit we were featured in New York Times, NPR, Okayplayer, Afropunk, and more. I developed creative and marketing strategies, produced visual content, and managed communications.
