The transition into the music industry looks like a kaleidoscope of different opportunities. Belmont University is a prestigious school that allows students to take advantage of wonderful internships and gain a better understanding of their future careers. The Belmont Career and Internship Fair connected me personally with the wonderful Olivia Management. I was captivated by the artwork of their artists like Hush Kids, and their charismatic personalities. I knew the moment I met them I wanted to work with them.
From the interview process to the first day in office, I was greeted by people who were dedicated to their work. Each worker carried their work and successfully accomplished each goal set in place. The summer seemed to fly by as Asana tasks were completed, Slack kept me laughing, and Publix subs were essential to a long day. It was always a good hang in this office. If you are looking to learn and expand your knowledge of the music industry this internship is for you. It felt easy to work hard in this female led office with a healthy dose of Harry Styles posters and fantastic music.
I learned some of the ropes to become an artist manager and I feel confident about where I am going. I am definitely going to miss casual walks to get a Cafe Con Leche with Grace, enjoying Merk’s music choices, and discussing Taylor Swift theories with Maddy. I look up to Erin and the company she has grown by hustling everyday. Olivia Management has incredible artists that are sure to leave an imprint on the industry. I am so thrilled to have spent my time here and can’t wait to see where bands like The Sewing Club and Hush Kids go. Thank you Olivia Management for the first memorable, learnable, and fun internship. Out for the day and see you next time friends!
