I am the financial whiz who makes sure the songwriters get paid the right amount every time their song is used, whether on the radio, in a commercial, or anywhere else. I may not be responsible for making them successful, but I put money in the pockets of Miley Cyrus and Bono and Kid Rock. They may not know me like I know them, but those checks they get are music to their ears.

I am the Vice President, Royalties at a music publishing company.
