Shannon has always recognized the drive within herself to be noticed in a big way - - she just had to wait a long time for her stage to be built.

    Shannon's made a big splash where she currently resides in Charlotte, NC. She has built her own successful company. She has written for and been featured in magazine publications, she has modeled on television and promotionally, she is often asked to emcee events and has even been featured at Charlotte's Comedy Zone. She has an uncanny ability to connect with people -- she's known for "knowing everyone"-- and it all started with a username and password.

    Shannon's amazing ability to interact, network, and create buzz within her massive online following is what caught TPEG's attention. Shannon's passion for live music and its energy is what bonded her to their mission.

    Shannon has done it all. Her placement in the music industry was a happy accident of sorts. She had her sights on television journalism , but got impatient when her internship application was not moving as fast as she'd wanted it to and instead accepted an offer with her favorite radio station. She was hooked instantly and interned at that group of stations for several years until she set her sights skyward and took employment with an international air carrier.

    Shannon has traveled the world and would follow her favorite bands to see on layovers as far as London, simply because "she could". She found herself fascinated with the different places she was visiting and found that music was one of the things that was universal. Shannon's blog about her travels and experiences gained an international following quickly.

    The invention of social media made Shannon's reach limitless. As Shannon's Twitter following grew exponentially and businesses large and small contacted her for tips, she realized she was onto something and left the airline to "wing it " on her own.

    Shannon reaches people. Shannon attracts and holds attention so uniquely that TPEG brought her to Nashville, embracing her social "ninja" abilities. Shannon's creative approach, sassy attitude, and boundary smashing are the same components that make magic in music. She has so many life experiences, it's natural for her to relate to people, and she is an expert at making words come alive, colorful, and contextual. All she has to do is meet you, and she's got you.
