Co-founder of Overground Music agency, I started small - writing gig reviews on last.fm. At some point, one of my favorite local bands quoted one of my reviews, then they asked me to write them a new bio, and 8 years later we're still working together.

Within the agency, I work with established Romanian artists and bands like byron, Robin and the Backstabbers, Lucia and The Mono Jacks, to name just a few. I'm particularly interested in image strategies and I'm fascinated by the narratives that hold together an artist's public image, as well as the various ways of communicating these narratives both online and offline.

Within RAW Music, the organizers of Mastering the Music Business, I bring some of the tech savvy and a decent share of dark humor. This year I was tasked with managing the Showcase Festival line-up, so if two bands you want to see are playing at the same time, it's probably my fault.

I believe that in everybody's life there is a time for Katie Melua, and a time for Behemoth.

Shuffle is a lie.
