Fall 2024 - I want to start by saying this was my first music industry class and it ended up being my favorite class out of my years at UCLA. Mr. E is one of the best professors that UCLA has to offer. He has many years of experience in producing for some of the biggest artists, and the lessons he brings to the table for any one wanting to go into live event producing are irreplaceable. I have a passion for promoting and producing concerts, and Mr.E added so much to what I already knew, and provided all steps, problem solving, and quick thinking skills to producing events anywhere from music festivals, arena tours or galas. Aside from being a good professor, he is a good person that will make time to make sure his students are not only learning but enjoying it along the process. Plus the field trips to different major venues in LA were super cool. I highly recommend overall to take this class- you will not regret it.

Spring 2024 - Best Professor ever. I cannot recommend this class enough. I think in the future its going to be known as 114c or something like that, but Proff P is a G. Best professor I have ever had to be completely honest. Every assignment was genuinely interesting. I was not used to the seminar style classes and some of them were more engaging than others, but that is every class. The content in all of the classes was beyond interesting. We basically chose an artist in her songwriting class and managed them / marketed them as an artist. if you are at all interested in the music industry you need to take this class. The only down side was that we did not have a canvas page or any assignment graded the whole entire quarter lol. I could be failing right now (i know I am not because I asked her) but I still have not received one grade back on any of my assignments lol.
