As August rolls around, it’s time for us to say goodbye to the amazing interns who have joined us for this Summer semester. They have so kindly written a reflection on the time they spent interning with us. We are so grateful for each and every one of them and the hard work they’ve put into everything they’ve helped us with over the last few months. We’ll miss them dearly and can’t wait to see the amazing things they go on to do!
Interning at OM this summer has been such an educational, fun, and productive experience. I could not have asked for more kind, helpful, and hardworking co-workers with the best CEO leading us. During my first day, I was so impressed by how organized and thorough OM is—from their detailed directions to their meticulous spreadsheets. I knew exactly what was expected of me, and if I had any questions, anyone on staff was happy to help. I learned so much from doing 1:1s with Erin, assisting with tasks in the office, and watching OM’s artists perform.
My favorite memory was when a few of us saw Mary Gauthier perform at The Bluebird Cafe with Jaimee Harris. It was so incredible to watch Mary’s songs come to life, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to attend an event in such a revered venue. Thank you to the OM team for making my summer in Nashville the best ever!
Being a summer intern at Olivia Management has been such a well-rounded, fruitful experience, especially for someone like me who was looking for an opportunity to get my foot in the door of the industry. From day one, the women who collectively make up OM made extensive efforts to make each and every intern feel welcomed and motivated to take on each day's tasks, while simultaneously trusting us with large scale projects. I am so grateful for all of the things this opportunity has allowed me to walk away with: from unique experiences to tangible skills I will be able to continue building on.
One of the most eye-opening parts of this internship was getting to witness how a “middle class” management company not only survives but thrives in an industry often dominated by giants. Seeing firsthand how Olivia Management navigates this space—with intentionality, adaptability, and deep care for their artists—has completely reshaped how I think about success in music. I leave this internship not only with a clearer path forward, but with a deeper belief that there’s space in the industry for people who lead with grit and heart.
Interning at Olivia Management has been an extremely educational and insightful experience. I have learned so much new information I had no idea about prior to being here. OM is filled with immensely talented women that truly care for their artists and help everyone succeed. They allowed us interns to learn from each other and be a team rather than multiple individuals in a room together. Whenever a time-sensitive situation arose, it was always handled with care and deliberation between our superiors that followed a certain flow, from a well-organized process and mission that was underneath the foundations which hold up OM. Whenever I had questions or was confused about something the answer usually resided on Slab or was a few feet away and was answered without hesitation.
Erin is a wonderful CEO and unites everyone with a divide-and-conquer mindset, showcasing her trust in everyone’s abilities. Even while Erin was on maternity leave celebrating the new addition to her family, Grace led the team as if nothing changed along with Maddy and Miriam!
I have gained so much insight into the industry and my strengths and weaknesses that make my career path so much clearer. There were a lot of fun moments and I am sad this time is coming to an end, but being here has been amazing and I will forever be grateful for my internship at Olivia Management.
Interning at Olivia Management this summer has been an incredibly educational and fulfilling experience. It was the perfect way to close out my college journey. As someone from New York, packing up my life and moving halfway across the country to Nashville was both stressful and exciting. From day one, the women in the office were welcoming, kind,
and understanding, which made the transition so much easier. Their depth of experience in the industry was incredibly valuable and played an important role throughout my time here.
Most of my work focused on social media projects and marketing, and thanks to the guidance and leadership of the entire team, I was able to grow both professionally and personally. I’ll definitely miss our Monday meetings and the fun, supportive energy in the office.
One of the highlights of this internship has been learning directly from such a successful and inspiring CEO and her team. Not only are they incredibly knowledgeable about the industry, but the time and care they invest in their interns speaks volumes about their dedication to shaping the future of music. Olivia Management is such a positive, dynamic place to be, and I’m so grateful to have spent my summer here.
Here we go again, the beginning of the year marks the beginning of a new semester and we’re so excited to introduce our newest batch of amazing interns. If you’ve been around a while, you know how much we appreciate the hard work our interns put in and we can’t wait to get to know these four lovely ladies joining us this spring.
We are so excited to get to know our lovely new interns and to see how much they grow and learn and how much they teach us! Here’s to an amazing Spring Semester!
