Hello! I’m Hayley, Patreon’s Head of Online Community, here to help foster connection among creators and tend to Patreon’s online community spaces - like this one.

I am professional art enabler and community builder, I have been part of online fan communities for artists that I love for over two decades recreationally, and for over a decade professionally. I’ve devoted my career to helping artists connect with their fans, build community around their work, and do so successfully online on sites like Patreon.

Since 2009 I have helped Amanda Palmer independently release her art and music and for the last several years I helped her organize, maintain and take care of her Patreon community as her Patreon Manager helping to release over 140 paid-posts (pieces of art) to over 13,000 patrons: http://patreon.com/amandapalmer

If you want to learn more about me and my work with Amanda Palmer and my journey along the way that has lead me here, check out this post we wrote together as an announcement when I joined Patreon’s team: https://www.patreon.com/posts/hayley-afp-4-na-52262121

If you want to connect with me, and see some of my concert photography (that’s my art!), I’m on Twitter or Instagram as @HayleyFiasco.
