What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?
I work in the music and events industry, and it's a lot of fun. You work with many different types of people who are interesting and really passionate about music and their roles.
I find that you're working with people who are very intense, but that intensity is also just straight passion for music. Everyone's always talking about what's going on in the industry, like who just released a new album, or up-and-coming artists.
That's really fun to be a part of. And then you're also working with the biggest stars in music, so people you've idolized your entire life, people you see on TV. It's just very exciting and very energizing.
