Artist Mentorship via Patreon
I will guide your journey as an artist from both a career and personal lens.
Are you an up and coming electronic music artist looking to elevate your career to the next level?
Are you looking to develop your inner artistic voice?
Are you trying to figure out what your message to the world is (through social media and otherwise)?
Do you struggle with the emotional demands of being an artist?
The lack of structure in our industry means finding your feet can be a daunting task. The emotional demands and mental health aspects are real. The constant pressure of social media and success projection weigh on us. There are millions of technical videos on YouTube, but it’s still tough figuring out exactly what YOU need to level up your game.
I’ve been there. I get it. Helping you would make me happy.
I developed the Artist Mentorship program to provide the map to help you navigate through this jungle. I’ll draw on my 15 years industry experience and active role as a DJ, producer, label owner, and event producer to give you a unique and personalized perspective on the industry and your career. I’ll be your copilot, helping guide you, rooting for you along the way.

HUMANITY
But beyond all these bullet points, I understand the sensitive, emotional, and creative aspects of this journey. I recognize the tension between staying true to ourselves and trying to make money. I prioritize the importance of focusing on our feelings as one of the many tools to guide us. I respect the humanity and spirit within you.
Our work will be a unique blend of career strategy, technical guidance, and inner work.
HOW IT WORKS
PROGRAM FEE
$268 per month
ONE ON ONE SESSIONS
The Artist Mentorship Program is focused around a monthly one on one zoom session. I encourage you to bring demos, questions, and issues to our meeting and they can be discussed together before constructing a plan of action. The sessions are there to provide the tools and information to overcome your challenges and make progress in the development of your career. The sessions can be recorded and sent to you to review in-depth.
OFFICE HOURS
Every month, I’ll host a group zoom call free for all Artist Mentees to join and ask any additional questions that arise outside of the monthly sessions. These questions can be asked on the call directly or submitted in advance via private message or #djsandproducers channel on my Discord server.
Some example Office Hours topics:
Why are we doing this? What’s our artistic purpose?
Why are SMS lists important? How do I build an SMS list?
Show and tell: share our current demo with the group and get feedback
Special guests fielding questions from mentees such as club bookers, booking agents, social media managers
DISCORD COMMUNITY
My Discord server welcomes all participants of the program to connect, ask questions and share ideas. I will join the conversation regularly and answer questions where possible. If it’s a complex question or if I can’t answer it in a timely fashion, we can discuss during the next office hours or 1:1 session.

I’m looking forward to helping you move forward, I want you to succeed!
