Meet the ICONAC US Team
Jasmine Kwok
Director of Operations
Jasmine
Conducting a smooth workflow like a maestro standing in front of the Philharmonic, Jasmine is our ever-kind and always-smiling Director of Operations at ICONAC. Born in Hong Kong but raised in the East Coast, Jasmine developed a passion for travel, culture, and adventure. Whether she’s hiking the foothills of Los Angeles, providing executive-level support from a skyscraper, or scootering through remote jungles, no environment is beyond her reach. If you spot someone smiling during Muay Thai practice, at a festival, or behind an oversized plate of Pad Thai, say hello. It just might be Jasmine.
Sharon Blalock
Director of Operations
Sharon
With a work ethic as big as her state, Texas-born and raised Sharon is the quiet force behind the company, helping it run smoothly as our Director of Operations. She entered the workforce before even graduating high school, and she loves finding ways for teams to be more efficient and effective. With three dogs (Zoi, Bella, and George), you’d think she’d have her hands full, but no, she loves animals! When asked who is easier to deal with: 'ICONAC coworkers or three dogs?' her silence confirmed what we all feared.
Nicholas Aliantro
Business Manager
Nick
Born in Atlantic City and now based in the vibrant artist community of Los Angeles, Nicholas Aliantro found his way to ICONAC through his love for the electronic music scene, especially the dubstep community. As our Business Manager, Nick excels in client cash flow management, thoroughly enjoying the dynamic interactions and problem-solving opportunities with clients and artists alike. Outside of work, Nick is passionate about music, his cats (Fairy and Fern), and the endless debate over the best Bacon, Egg, and Cheese sandwich between New York and New Jersey. Whether at a warehouse show or managing finances, Nick is a person you want on your team.
Samantha August
Business Manager
Samantha
Born in London and raised in Northern Virginia, Samantha brings the love of numbers and a deep passion for the EDM scene to her role as Business Manager at ICONAC. With a degree in Accounting and Information Systems from Virginia Tech, and her previous experience at Deloitte, she’s no stranger to crunching numbers—just now she’s doing it for rockstars instead of regulators. When she’s not helping artists manage their money, you’ll likely find her catching a set at a music festival or camping under the stars with friends. Finn (her cat) may run the house while she works from home, but Samantha’s the one holding it down behind the scenes, making sure creatives have the freedom to keep creating.
Anat Cohen
Sr Accounting Manager
Anat
A Los Angeles native, Anat was drawn to ICONAC for its lifestyle, values, and collaborative work culture. As our Senior Account Manager, her little one proudly tells his friends that she “helps entertainers keep track of their money.” When she's not at work, Anat enjoys using her passport to explore new destinations and dreams of Wonder Woman as a roommate, both of which she considers solid investments with high returns.
Hamish Houston
Client Accounting Manager
Hamish
Originally from Eastbourne, England, Hamish now calls Bend, Oregon home, where the peaceful surroundings remind him of the UK. After studying Finance at St. Thomas Aquinas College in New York, he built his career supporting entertainers as a Tour Accountant and Senior Accountant. At ICONAC, Hamish enjoys helping artists manage the financial side of their careers and making a meaningful difference for his clients as the Client Accounting Manager. Outside of work, you'll find him golfing, hiking, cooking, or planning his next adventure; and eating pineapple on his pizza.
Sam Stillwell
Senior Accountant
Sam
After living the van life for a bit, hitting 22 states and 19 national parks, Sam returned to Tampa and dug her heels in as our Senior Accountant. Why? Beaches and theme parks within 30 minutes. Makes sense. Loving to work with numbers, and particularly taking joy from contributing to client success, Sam was drawn to ICONAC as it checked all the boxes. If you see a boat whizzing past with a Pit Bull and a one-eyed, six-toed cat, it’s probably Sam.
Emily Myers
Staff Accountant
Emily
Emily was born in Portland and now calls Washington home, where she brings her love of organization, numbers, and a little creative chaos to ICONAC. Her career has taken her from the camera department on reality TV sets to production accounting and corporate finance, giving her a unique behind-the-scenes perspective on the entertainment industry. Outside of work, Emily enjoys hunting for vintage treasures, reselling thrift finds, and growing her Gunne Sax dress collection. She's a lifelong Avril Lavigne fan, a proud cat mom to Stella and Luna, and will never pass up a perfectly ripe orange.
Yvonne Wilson
Sr Treasury Analyst
Yvonne
Classically trained as a vocalist, there’s no one else you’d want raising their voice for you when you’re owed money. Yvonne, our Accounts Receivable Specialist, is creative, dependable, and empathetic, with a passion for singing and songwriting, she’s the perfect fit at ICONAC. A Los Angeles local, her favorite part of the job? 'Working with talented musicians and going to shows!’
Carla Tubig
Sr Tax Accountant
Carla
Carla Tubig is a Senior Tax Accountant based in Pampanga, Philippines. A graduate of Holy Angel University with a degree in Accounting Technology, she built her career through roles at 3M, Collective, and Accountalent before joining ICONAC. Carla enjoys helping clients navigate tax matters while continuing to expand her expertise across the entertainment industry. Outside of work, she dreams of traveling the world, investing in places that feel like home, and will happily remind you that pineapple has no place on pizza.
Mark Rueda
Tax Manager
Mark
How do you make sure your clients are compliant on their taxes? You literally hire Mark, our Tax Manager, away from the IRS, where he served as an Internal Revenue Agent. It’s like having a personal chef or Jackie Chan as your bodyguard! Queens, NYC-born and raised, Mark loves the peace of his Ozone Park neighborhood, which serves as his hub. As a self-described introvert and traveler, the remote culture of the company is the perfect fit for him and his Pomeranian, Sura.
Shelby Davis
Tax Supervisor
Shelby
A Houston native, Shelby earned her accounting degree from the University of Houston before building her career in tax, including serving as an Internal Revenue Agent with the IRS. As Tax Supervisor at ICONAC, she keeps the tax process running smoothly while helping clients navigate every stage of tax season. Shelby enjoys learning the unique challenges of the entertainment industry. Outside of work, she's usually playing Call of Duty: Warzone, spending time with her three dogs, or listening to Lana Del Rey.
Jake Cox
Tax Associate
