I am a music enthusiast with a deep love for the energy of crowded venues, loud music, & passionate fans. I have a diverse background that includes private security, talent buying, festival security planning, & media relations. I've also worked as a camera operator for various projects, including music videos featuring notable artists like Bernz, Tech N9ne, & Krizz Kaliko. Additionally, I am a camera operator for Full Moon Features, where I contribute to the production of horror movies.
  • Barb Wire Dolls, a punk band originally from Greece, performed at the Warped Tour in Dallas, Texas, and described it as one of their best performances on the tour.
  • The band started in Greece with an artist commune on the island of Crete, but struggled to find venues to play in Greece due to punk’s association with anarchism; they eventually created their own scene in Athens.
  • Legendary DJ Rodney Bingenheimer discovered the band on MySpace, played their demo on KROQ, and invited them to play in Los Angeles; they also met Lemmy from Motorhead, who later signed them to his label, Motorhead Music.
  • Lemmy advised the band not to change their style for anyone and to give 100%; he considered them part of his legacy, and the band feels obligated to uphold that honor.
  • Barb Wire Dolls released their third album, “Rub My Mind,” which is more melodic and was recorded in the desert at Rancho de la Luna; the album reflects the world’s state after the Bataclan Paris attacks and promotes overcoming fear and self-pity.
