I am the Founder and CEO of Symphonic, a digital music services company which provides digital distribution, playlisting and marketing services, go to market strategy, and more for content creators.
I started my career in the music industry as a DJ/Producer at the age of 16, releasing over 45 vinyl records that consisted of original music and remixes in what was then a difficult time in the music industry given that you still needed to release music via Vinyl and CD.
My passion for production led me to tour and expand my network of musicians, brand owners, and contacts that led to an entrepreneurial spark to create my own business that would help musicians like me.
In 2006, with no venture capital or outside funding, I founded Symphonic Distribution. The aim of the company was to make it easier for creators to get music and messages heard and seen in as many outlets possible. Starting from humble beginnings, the company grew and grew and now, the days of this company being considered a small startup are long gone.
With content distributed from popular artists such as: Imogen Heap, Sublime, Ok Go!, Sixpence None The Richer, New Radicals, Jon Batiste, Tokischa, Doechii, Surf Mesa, DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill, Stick Figure, El Alfa, Juan Luis Guerra, Onyx, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Sister Hazel, Melissa Etheridge, Nick Murphy/Chet Faker, Sean Paul, CloZee, Odesza, Eddy Herrera, The Midnight, LS DREAM, Sarah McLachlan, Reel Big Fish, Matisyahu, and many more incredibly talented creatives across various genres.

Today, the team of Symphonic has grown to over 170 passionate individuals in offices throughout the US as well as international presence. We have distributed millions of songs from hundreds of thousands of creators across various genres and have paid out countless millions in royalties.
I am fortunate to work alongside a great group of professionals and have been honored to be recognized to the Billboard Magazine Power Players list in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2023, 2024 respectively and still produce music!
