ABI Profile: Mikayla
MIKAYLA
is a student from Washington State University where she is majoring in English Pre-Law. She did a remote internship at Warp Records in the Summer 2021.
My internship was with Warp Records in Brooklyn, NY. Warp Records is an indie record label that started in London, England and has expanded to New York and Los Angeles. They work with various artists, across many different genres on the development of their newest projects and releases.
Some of the artists on their roster include: Yves Tumor, Aphex Twin, Kelela, Squid, and so many more. My main role as the Digital Marketing Intern was to gather user generated content and develop campaign strategies from the research that was conducted.

This internship introduced me to the behind the scenes aspect of the music industry and how progressive and fast paced it is. The amount of knowledge that I gained from my peers in this internship has positively impacted my future in the field of music as I was given information that truly inspired me to develop a greater appreciation for the work that is done. This internship has allowed me to develop an extensive network that will jumpstart my future career to a greater capacity.
In becoming a recipient of the Ambassador scholarship from ArtBound, this definitely helped me in so many ways, not just financially, but mentally as well. ArtBound’s coaching has prepared me for my future career in the music industry.
Thanks to ABI's guidance, I've been able to become an improved version of myself, which enabled me to successfully enter the music industry.
