🎯 Current focus
I am currently focused on building out my company Hart & Songs — I’m excited to continue expanding the kind of clients I am working with and finding ways to give back to the creator community. Recently I made a Beyond The Classroom Guide for college students and recent grads in the music industry. It’s a resource that I wish I had when I was in school because it can be so hard to build a network in the industry early in your career.
🤳 TikTok as a search engine tool
Something unique about how I use TikTok is that I use it purely as a search engine tool. Whether I am planning a trip in a different country or want to learn about a certain topic TikTok provides some of the BEST content. Next time you are looking for the perfect hotel or restaurant in a new city look it up on TikTok, you will not be disappointed I promise!
🎧 Songs that make you feel the feelings
3 songs that I absolutely love right now are “Deep End” by Holly Humberstone, “All I Ever Ask” by Rachel Chinouriri, and “Arms” by The Paper Kites. All of these songs just make me feel the feelings and I love that part about connecting with songs.
🕉️ Mantra of the moment
I am just about to hit one year of being a full-time entrepreneur and something that I continued to be reminded of is that the universe will bring you opportunities if you are passionately building something and you put all of your heart into it.
🌊 Summer staples
I’m so looking forward to SUMMER. I am excited for summer to wear all of the linen clothes, get sandy and sun-kissed, and spend time with my friends.
Target's summer clothing section is underrated, I have found some of my best linen & summer clothes there. On the more "fancy" side I am obsessed with all things Free People. Hats are a necessity in the summer and Lack Of Color has some of my FAVORITE hat styles. I grew up in San Diego and was raised on Roberto's rolled tacos and boogie boarding at Torrey Pines beach and nothing gets better than that!
💤 SNOOZ white noise machine
Something that I cannot live without is my SNOOZ white noise machine in my bedroom, I HIGHLY recommend it for light sleepers.
SNOOZ has an actual fan inside which is way better than a sound machine version of white noise. It has a Bluetooth-enabled app that I can control from my phone so I can turn it on from my bed! Adulting truly is finding products that make your sleep better.
🎶 Sabrina Carpenter’s "Espresso"
Sabrina Carpenter’s song "Espresso" has a marketing plan of pop genius behind it. Personally, I'm obsessed with its catchy lyricism, and it's impossible to avoid encountering this song on the internet. I love the various ways people are creating content with it. I fully embrace my Sabrina stan status.
I have seen some incredible artists write a verse on the song, one of my favorite videos is from Devon Cole - as well as creating their own versions of the song like Stacey Ryan who made a jazz acapella version that blew my mind - and finally always a fan favorite, Tiny Habits did a stairwell version of it and I am obsessed with the harmonies.
