The Journey

  • As early as 2012, Elliott was premiering YouTube videos by inviting viewers to virtual events. By 2015, he hosted weekly radio shows, performed on stage in front of thousands, and promoted lifestyle brands. By 2017, he was leading media teams, documenting musicians, interning at Atlantic Records and then working at Creative Artists Agency. By 2019, Elliott was photographing emerging artists, hosting on-camera interviews, and producing red carpet premieres.

  • Elliott organized vendors, designed proposals, managed new accounts, led media relations, and stewarded publicity campaigns for Hollywood studios, entertainment companies, people and brands. As his skills evolved, he incorporated other interests to diversify his portfolio.

  • Elliott is energized by working one-on-one with artists and founders growing their businesses. His expectations raise the bar and he’s known to be β€œunusually direct and effective.”
