About The EXPERT

Carly Webster

I want to leave this industry better than I found it.

When I first became active in music - primarily as a fan - in 2016, I noticed an extreme lack of representaton for fans identifying as disabled, chronically ill, neurodivergent, or generally marginalized. And I wanted to do something about it.

I began organizing fan projects online and on the ground - some going viral within the target communities and gaining attention from the artists. I didn't realize for a while, though, that this could become a legitimate career - and something people would take seriously.

Since then, I've been diving into the music industry however I can. Alongside running my nonprofit, Disabled Music Fans Collective, I've participated in college employment, internships, volunteering, mentorship programs, and much more.

My ultimate goal? To make an impact, wherever I am. The future generations of fans depend on that.
