Off to a great start
So I haven’t really explained this yet, but this summer I am honored to be a part of Belmont University and the Mike Curb College of Entertainment and Music Business’s inaugural Pipeline Project. Nine of us were hired after an extensive interview process, and this summer we are charged with coming up with new models and solutions to the problems facing the entertainment and music...
