AK Artist Management

Are you a musician, creator, composer, or educator with certain aspects of your career (like keeping your email organized!) that you’d rather pass off to someone? Or you need help creating structure around a project you want to launch? Or you are a composer wanting to spread your music into more spaces? OR a student who is just starting out and needs some advice on where and how to begin?!
Let me help you! 


Music schools often focus on the technical side of playing, teaching, and collaborating. After graduating, I realized the many life skills necessary to build a career, business, and non-profit. It turns out, not all musicians are taught the skills needed to build a multifaceted career in music! From straightforward tasks, like creating a newsletter and building a website, to more complicated projects, like coordinating consortia, PR pitching, and launching a non-profit - there are so many avenues to consider when building a music career. And learning these skills takes TIME (which as we all know, we have a limited amount of each day).

Thanks to everyone’s favorite friend, a global pandemic, I had so much pent-up energy and time that shifted from driving to gigs to learning how to build a brand. Over the last few years, I gained so much experience from my time managing Rising Tide Music Press, launching Diversify the Stand, turning DtS from an LLC to a non-profit, booking hundreds of my own presentations across the world, and finally realizing my passion for management and organization. All in all, I finally took my own advice that I’ve been telling hundreds of musicians (become your brand and create an LLC - it’s important) and did just that!

If you are reading this and have ever thought: “wow, it would be so nice if someone else could do this administrative work so I can focus on what I do best?” or “I’d love to do this but don’t know where to begin?” or “If I want it done I have to do it myself, but now I’ve put too much on myself!” Please reach out and say hello! My goal is to help you thrive, taking some work off your plate so you can do what you do best: focus on your craft - each artist I work with is in a differing capacity, as everyone’s workload looks a little different, and that’s the beautiful in the collaborations I create!
