Carolyn “Bree” Brewer, is the dynamic CEO of SkyBlueReighn, LLC, a full spectrum, cutting edge entertainment company headquartered in Los Angeles, CA.
Having started her career as a hip-hop dancer under West Side Management, home of DJ Quik, Hi-C, AMG and 2nd II None, Carolyn later became the receptionist at World Movement Records. Her work ethic and tenacity quickly led her to the role of Director of Promotions where she became, ‘one to watch,” in the music industry. With an exceptional eye for brand building, marketing and promotions, Carolyn moved on to become the Director of Marketing & Promotions for Heartless Records, Inc., and Heartless Recording Studio where several artist laid vocals such as Anthony Hamilton, Ice Cube, Bone Thugs and Harmony, Sunshine Anderson, and let’s not forget hot tracks developed in the studio by super producers Mark Sparks and Battlecat. She then continued making her mark at Death Row Records Inc. the music label that birthed superstars, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Tupac Shakur.
Leading a successful entertainment company in a male dominated industry is no small feat, yet Carolyn has done so through laser focus and developing the “thick skin” necessary to not only survive but thrive in the face of adversity. A true believer in mentorship, Carolyn’s skills were honed and sharpened through the expert tutelage of Kevin Black (former Interscope Records and Warner Brothers Records Senior Executive), Johnnie Walker (former VP of R&B Promotions at Def Jam Records), and Jeff Hamilton, (the official sponsor of NASCAR clothing and NBA/NFL championship jackets.)

In addition, in 2014 Carolyn was recognized by the Mayor of Carson for her outstanding work in bringing high profile talent to the Women in Entertainment Luncheon Event held annually in the City of Carson.
As she continues to elevate her brand brilliance, she is also passionate about helping other women in entertainment to do the same. Since 1999 she has been a member of the National Association of Black Female Executives in Music and Entertainment (NABFEME) whose mission is to “raise the profile and increase awareness of women in entertainment.” Carolyn’s plan is to magnify the number of economic opportunities for women of color. She currently serves as the Vice President of Operations West, NABFEME Inc. and the Director of the NABFEME Los Angeles Network. Carolyn uses experience to make decisions in order to ensure the organization is profitable and sustainable. She is responsible for planning, coordinating action, branding, membership, creating educational seminars, content, social and networking events, in addition to charity events and fundraisers.
With the many successes Carolyn has attained, she still aspires to start a foundation to inspire, educate, raise awareness and resources to find a cure for Parkinson’s disease, which she experienced personally when her father was diagnosed in 1997.
When she is not working, she spends most of her time with her family and friends, especially embarking on new adventures with her beautiful daughter. "The only thing that comes to a sleeper is a dream that disappears when you wake up" ~ Carolyn “Bree” Brewer
