“Mili is a go-getter and one of the hardest working people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Mili’s leadership skills set her apart from others. She is extremely detailed oriented and a quick learner. When Mili puts her mind to something, she makes it happen. No to mention, her positive nature and spirit lights up any room she sets foot in.”
– Morgan Townsend King / Digital Strategy and Social Media in Music Marketing –
“I have known Milica for several years now as she’s often provided consulting for international markets (Italy in particular) for some of the artists Roun’table Entertainment was developing. Milica’s knowledge of international music marketplace is impressive and she’s well-informed about the newest trends in fans engagement/artist promotion and marketing.
Her knowledge of several foreign languages allows her to understand and speak to a broader audience and that’s what we loved about working with Milica. Her vibrant personality makes it a pleasure to work with her and her feedback is always thorough, constructive and innovative. As her mentor over the years I’ve found Milica has great insight on the U.S record label and publishing industries and she is dependable, a quick learner and very driven.”
– Merlin Bobb / Experienced Music Executive , Entertainment Entrepreneur and Consultant –
“It was such a pleasure to work with Milica while at Wind-up Records. Not only is Mili an absolute joy to be around, but she made the entire office feel like a family. I often leveraged her knowledge of international music publishing when sync licensing requests came from abroad. She’s a stellar team player, but also more than capable of getting the job done on her own. Smart, creative, detail oriented, and highly organized, she would be successful in a wide range of roles. I’d love to work with Mili again, as I know she’d be an asset to any team.”
