Coffee and Q&A with McKenzie Parker - Saturday Morning, June 5th (10am CST) Please join NSAI’s Chicago Chapter as we welcome Director of NSAI Chapters McKenzie Parker. McKenzie, who works with NSAI Chapter Coordinators throughout the international organization, will preview some of the exciting developments coming our way from NSAI headquarters in Nashville. We're hoping she may also share some of her insights and experiences regarding professional communications, ethics and successful business practices within the songwriting community. More about McKenzie: A native of Hendersonville, Tennessee, McKenzie began her career working in various retail stores as a manager while pursuing her dreams to work in the music industry. In February of 2018 she joined the NSAI team as a receptionist and worked her way up to the prestigious position of International Chapter Director, where she also coordinates the Nashville, TN Chapter. She is passionate about music on all levels and has a background in songwriting. When she was 20, she decided to pursue a more business-oriented career because her love for helping others outweighed her need to write and perform. You can typically find her at a show or writers round enjoying the sounds of local bands, songwriters and artists. Please note: If you would like to participate in our June 5 meeting, you must RSVP to Bob Osgood at: [email protected] so he can provide you with the login information. We will conduct song reviews following our discussion with McKenzie if time allows. Hope to see you for what promises to be an interesting and informative meeting with McKenzie Parker on June 5th.
