christian colabelli

I have over 15 years of professional experience in the music industry where I've worn many hats. My current roles include performance, product demonstration, product management, content creation, creative marketing, artist relations, sales, copy writing, and photoshop work. I'm able to utilize my performance background from Berklee College of Music and my English degree from Boston College to navigate a broad range of tasks. I am extremely adept at networking and helped create a vast channel of artists and new business relations for my company. My manifold experiences have shaped me in a unique fashion and taught me how to deal with people, which I believe is the most important asset to possess, and often the most overlooked quality. I have an unrivaled work ethic and put 100 percent of myself into everything that I do. I am passionate, creative, dedicated, and driven and look forward to meeting and exceeding all challenges at hand.
