Amplify Berlin (2018-2021)
Amplify Berlin was a residency program designed to support emerging Berlin-based musicians through mentorships with more established ones in order to facilitate creative development through guidance, a focused work environment and access to resources. It also strove to promote greater equity & representation in the Berlin music landscape. I formulated the vision, developed the strategy, obtained funding & built partnerships resulting in 30 residencies featuring 90 artists. Additionally, I organised a complementary program of panels, workshops & artist talks. Partners included Ableton, Native Instruments, Novation, Focusrite, Slate+Ash, ROLI, Elektron, Ex-Berliner Magazine, Crack Magazine & CTM Festival.

No Shade (2017-2021)
No Shade was a Berlin-based collective that offers DJ training programs and events as an educational initiative and platform for female, non-binary and trans DJs. I co-founded & launched this initiative contributing to vision, developing strategy & securing funding to make the club scene more accessible, diverse & welcoming. As project manager, I also managed the budget & logistics for the training workshops, open calls & event lineups. This manifested in 30+ events, 18 trained DJs as well as numerous media features & brand partnerships (including Adidas, Zalando, Beatport, Boiler Room, Vice-iD & Red Bull Radio).
