Nadine Perrero

Biography

Nadine Perrero is a Faculty member of the Media and Entertainment Industries, at the Mike Curb College of Entertainment and Music Business.

Originally from Malaysia, she is classically trained in Bharatanatyam and piano. She attended a Chinese-Mandarin speaking medium school and began honing her verbal and written Mandarin skills from the tender age of four years old.

As an adolescent, Nadine had moved to Germany to study the language, while simultaneously attending the Modern Music School where she was trained in voice and piano by international industry professionals. Apart from her main schooling, she was also enrolled into ballet and contemporary dance lessons.

After immersing herself within the German culture for over three years, Nadine made plans to set out to America to pursue her tertiary education. During her time in the States, she earned her Bachelors of Arts in Vocal Performance from Monmouth College. She was furnished with opportunities to continue performing internationally, particularly embracing her experience in Rome- singing at the St. Peter’s Basilica, among other venues.

After her undergraduate studies, Nadine moved to the East Coast to work with non-profit organizations. Following her return to the Midwest, she attended Columbia, Chicago and graduated from the Business and Entrepreneurship program, with a Masters in Performing Arts Management. Throughout her time at Columbia, she had the joy of managing Artists, working on SXSW events, producing live events, and performing in multiple showcases.

In her desire to remain in the creative industries, and her dedication to higher education, Nadine was naturally drawn to the work served at the Curb College. In 2020, her family moved to Nashville, and she began her career at Belmont University.

Aside from leading entertainment industry relationships for students, Nadine is currently pursuing her PhD- focusing on Cultural and Creative Policies and the Malaysian Music Industry.
