KJA Promotions - 2000 to Present
In the Fall of 2000, I returned to my tiny little hometown of Jamestown, TN. It wasn't long before I was bored and looking for things to do - things especially related to music and art. Thus begins my journey into Production and Promotions. I had no formal training but I didn't stop long enough to think about it. I knew what I wanted to happen, and I made it so. I haven't stopped since then. I also picked up basic graphic desgin and website creation skills along the way. I've moved a few times over the years, but have made Cookeville, TN my home. I finally had the opportunity to start my own music venue and art gallery in 2009. I may not be a performer or artist, but I have just as much passion for The Arts and will do all I can to help support and create events. I have most recently become a Consultant for non-profit start ups, events, and general marketing.
