THE MUSIC INDUSTRY HAS A MANUAL

They just don't hand it out

Practical knowledge for artists and managers who are done navigating blind



Hi, I'm Maria

I've been working in the music industry full-time since 2016 — music marketing, artist management, creative direction and services. I've helped build artist and label brands, worked across releases and touring cycles, and collaborated with everything from early-stage projects to Grammy-awarded acts.

Ninja Tune · San Holo · Bonobo · Domino Recording Co · Wet Leg · Th3rd Brain · bitbird · Sony Music Entertainment · warner case · Mindchatter · FDVM · Don Diablo · and many other teams I was honored to work with

I know how exhausting this industry can be when you're trying to navigate it without a map. That's why I created Noux Academy — a space built around clarity, sharing, and practical guidance for artists and the new generation of managers.This is a safe haven for the misfits, the weirdos, and the outcasts. For those who felt othered, who were told they didn't belong, and who stayed anyway. You're welcome to sit at my table.
