Published Multi-Media Journalist and Music Producer Payton Wilson
12 JAN 2022 · Welcome to Possibilities over Problems. In today's episode Sean will be speaking with Payton Wilson. She is a 17-year-old multimedia journalist with experience beyond her years. Growing up in Katy, Texas (a small suburb of Houston), Payton always had a love for music, sports, and the written word. Her father was one of the best high school football coaches in the state and her mother was a nationally published best selling author. With both parents in the picture, they laid the foundation for who Payton would soon become. Payton got her start as a music producer, selling her first best at the age of 11. She taught herself the piano and guitar, and was trained on the saxophone. She eventually got into DJing and by 13, she had a fully-fledged DJing business. Although Payton loved music, she also loved playing sports. She played three sports- basketball, track, and golf up until her senior year of high school. In May of 2020, Payton took a chance and started sending the music reviews she enjoyed writing off to different publications. She was told no at least a dozen times, but there was one publication that believed in her, HypeOffLife. She wrote over there for a while and eventually began conducting interviews. At the age of only 16, she became a published journalist and interviewed a GRAMMY-nominated artist. Payton continued sending her work off to other publications and eventually caught the eye of REVOLT. They loved the work she’d been doing for HypeOffLife and wanted her to pen a few articles for them. This was the start of an extremely lucrative relationship between her and REVOLT. One of the first articles she wrote for them ended up going viral on LinkedIn, and caught the eye of Essence, BET, Power105.1, and Amplify Voices to name a few. In July, Payton signed a contract as a copywriter for Amplify Voices, and then in August, she wrote for Essence. Payton has been the youngest paid writer anywhere she’s written. She just came back from Atlanta on assignment for REVOLT with more connections and opportunities than she’s ever imagined. She’s only a senior in high school and still has so much time ahead of her and so much left to accomplish.
