Qualifications and Skills Budgets – I am experienced in creating budgets of all types, from recording to touring, and access to numerous contacts to make any size budget work in areas of bussing, backline, hotels, flights and road crew. Advance –I have organized effective ways to plan out every hour of every aspect of advance tours, from travel to hotel bookings, bus calls and press requests. Every aspect of the day is carefully coordinated and communicated to every team member in a clear and concise manner via tour books, emails, phone calls and daily sheets. Settlement – My settlements are done thoroughly with backup requested for all expenses when there is a chance for backend. Settlement in multiple currencies is not a problem. The more challenging the settlement; the more fun I have with it. I email nightly settlements to management, agent and accountant along with a show summary and promoter report.
