Daniel Nordheim
I've worked at Pandora for the last twelve years focusing on Artist Support and Creator Services for the music industry. Like many who work in the music industry, I came to it first by being an independent artist and trying to navigate songwriting, recording, touring and marketing my various projects. The grind of being a DIY musician led me to try my hand at making a living as a music industry professional. Since then I've pivoted to audio storytelling and music journalism as I developed a documentary podcast called Life of the Record where I interview artists about making classic albums. My life as a music obsessed person has led me through these different turns in my career and has given me a unique perspective on what it takes to adapt and remain a creative person in a challenging industry.
