client stories

I have worked with Karen and KCA since 2021 regarding a variety of things from project management for my solo album, photoshoots, coaching, and social media guidance. Prior to the pandemic I hosted an annual Trombone Day that usually had about 50-60 attendees. Starting in 2022, I collaborated with KCA for these events expanding them to include more vendors, guest artists, and increased marketing strategies that resulted in an average of 150+ attendees. This year we have expanded to include all brass for our first ever Southern Miss Brass Symposium. Again, I am collaborating with KCA and I am excited to see how this inaugural event turns out! Karen is decisive, goal-oriented, and gets things done. I enjoy working with her and her team.”
