A tad bit stubborn and totally focused on the job at hand, you will most likely find Linda with a blackberry in her hand and a Mac under her arm. Approach with caution…and if you ask her a question expect an honest answer.
Aoife Lanigan- ACCOUNTS DEPT.- (Marketing strategist extraordinaire, Product developer and friend to many a musician).
Miss Lanigan is a very important person in Good Seed and keeps everyone firmly on their toes. Aoife has a full BA in culinary arts (which means she is a mean cook & pastry chef -guess you never knew that- she has also cooked for Brad Pitt, Bono and other highly eh gifted people..) but never cooks anymore…. She has degrees in product development and a list of music courses, including the HOTPRESS Mix Six course and Promoting & Marketing courses both online & offline building up over the last few years= Equals a very bright and intelligent music mongrel of the highest degree.
Aoife is also the Good Seed Accountant and really likes numbers. Where as Linda is afraid of numbers, very afraid….Aoife doesn’t look mean but trust us she can be. Do not mess with this lady and never EVER click your fingers at her (o: In general she is the calming person when things get hectic and a brilliant researcher.
