Next-Gen Advice

“By now, a lot of us know the fundamentals of how to showcase our expertise online, and that’s a powerful tool. But you need to figure out how to bring your whole self IRL too – there is an art to speaking confidently about your skills in a room full of people you may not know, and it’s more important than ever. This goes for whether you’re an artist, manager, producer, or even an engineer: you never know who’s in the room looking for someone exactly like you.

It’s a skill that has opened a lot of doors for me, and given me so many opportunities.”
