About Adam:
I started my career 16 years ago working for the band Linkin Park as an assistant at their company Machine Shop. My first jobs included being a receptionist, office manager, personal assistant, and whenever needed – tech support. Before long I started interacting with their fans online via messageboards and chat rooms and worked closely with their management to support the band’s digital marketing initiatives. I started the band’s Instagram, Twitter and Facebook accounts and was eventually promoted to Digital Marketing Manager where I ran the band’s socials, growing them to over 50M combined followers in just a few years, and conceptualized and executed digital campaigns for various albums, singles and tours. Eventually the band brought me on tour where I coordinated nightly fan club meet and greets. I also helped conceptualize and produce unique fan club events all over the world. In 2013 I made the leap to their record label, Warner Records, where I joined the digital marketing department. In my 7 ½ years there, I worked with artists including Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Michael Buble, Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, Liam Gallagher, and many more. In 2020 I moved over to Elektra/Fueled By Ramen/Roadrunner where I’ve worked with Twenty One Pilots, Brandi Carlile, Slipknot, Alec Benjamin, Gojira, and more. In 2022 I was promoted to Head of Digital Marketing at the company.
