Kristine Dizon: Hello, my name is Kristine Dizon and I'm the CEO and founder of The Modern Artist Project. Today, I'm with Kirsten Milenko, an Australian composer and conductor based in Paris. Her music embodies acoustic and electronic settings of an immersive and beautifully strange nature grounded on spectral portraits. Her work as a conductor began as an extension of composition evolving to reform the relations of imaginary to concrete realizations of musical gesture across a diverse repertoire. She completed her composition studies at the Royal Danish Academy of Music and the Sydney Conservatorium of Music where she received the 2016 Ignaz Friedman Memorial Prize for Excellence in Composition. She's currently studying the 2022-2023 Cursus Program on Composition and Computer Music at IRCAM. In 2019, she was awarded the Roche Young Commission by the Artistic Director of the Lucerne Festival, Wolfgang Rihm.  This interview has been edited for clarity and brevity.

Kristine Dizon: Hello, my name is Kristine Dizon and I'm the CEO and Founder of The Modern Artist Project. Today, I'm with Jennet Ingle who is the Principal Oboist of the South Bend Symphony Orchestra, Jennet is a soloist at heart, joyfully taking over any stage that will have her lifelong interest in new music lead to a recent commissioning project “Dreams and Visions (Searching the Shadows)” by Marjorie Rush, which is a triptych based on cards from the tarot deck. As the owner and operator of Jennet Ingle Reeds, she makes over 200 handmade reeds every month and helps people with her own reed-making through her YouTube series, the “Five Minute Reed Maker”. Her weekly online reed club and her beginner course “Zero to Reed Maker.” She's even offered a program for Oboe, and is hoping to start a reed business of their own. Jennet has recently focused on building a community for adult oboists. Her signature group program, “The Invincible Oboist” demystifies instrumental skills and helps oboists to get past their struggles to find ease in their playing. Her 2022 book, “The Happiest Musician” encourages creatives to take agency in their careers instead of waiting to be chosen. So thank you Jennet, for joining us today.no Jennet Ingle: Thanks, Kristine, what a pleasure.  What’s a job without work? What’s a claim without evidence? What’s a person without personality? In all these scenarios, the job, the claim, and the person would be nothing without something to back it up. A thorough and engaging portfolio can do just that for you trying to build your creative career. The digital world has expanded the creative spectrum for artistic people to have many options when it comes to constructing their portfolios. A portfolio can come in the form of a website, demo reel, animation, or a simple scrapbook, but the purpose of them is all the same: it summarizes who you are and reflects that in your work.

Thank you, Mary, for joining us today. Thank you. Mary Mack: I stayed quiet that whole time. I kept my face in my coffee mug so that I wouldn't interrupt you. I was trying to be so respectful. Thank you so much for that nice introduction. Holy cow, we were giggling. I know, this is your show, but I have to tell everybody about this, that we were laughing because I told Kristine she was coming to Minnesota.  I never thought in my life…that I would be able to host a podcast. I have always been very shy when it came to public speaking and was hesitant to start it. However, I saw that it was a necessity to share and have honest discussions about the creative industries with a variety of different professionals that had encountered a variety of different obstacles that led to their successes.
