The AEMM department will have the privilege of a visit from one of our most famous alumni in November.  Marcos Palacios of Da Internz is coming to Columbia on 11/15 for the MIC (Music Industry Conference) planned by the Student Programming Board.  We have arranged for him to spend some time with us on Thursday, November 14th at 3:30pm and would like to invite students to get up close and personal.

As an alumni of Columbia College AEMM program, Marcos Palacios (Kosine) of Da Internz, a Grammy nominated music production duo, is quick to credit his years here as a platform to jump start his career in the music business.  He has wasted no time in working with famed artists like Nas, Justin Timberlake, Rihanna, and Miley Cyrus before he has even turned the ripe age of 30.  But good luck is only a small portion of his amazing success.  He has had to work hard at developing a specific persona within the music industry that has led to incredible opportunities. If you want to hear about his journey from classroom to real world success, Marcos shares it all!

Don’t miss the chance to hear his story at Ferguson Hall, 600 S Michigan Ave, November 14, 2013 at 3:30pm.
