Since childhood, Taylor Rummel has had an interest in both writing and music. In college, he began writing for a music blog, Hillydilly—an experience that would lead to multiple internships and kickstart a career in the music industry. After ten years of work in a variety of roles, including as a music curator and senior manager of community and distribution at Universal Music Group, he has added nonprofit work to his repertoire, engaging in grant writing for a local music nonprofit. For the foreseeable future, he aims to illuminate career-building resources for artists while building connectedness throughout the music community.
