Ester Dean is a singer-songwriter & producer. She has written songs for many artists, with many Top 10 hits from several of them such as Rihanna and Katy Perry, which earned herself the name “The Song Factory”.

At a young age she learned how to channel her energy into her music. At 20 years old Dean made a bold move and left Omaha with only $500 in her pocket. She drove 18 hours to Atlanta, Georgia with dreams of breaking into the music industry. While at a Gap Band concert, music producer Tricky Stewart overheard Dean singing in the crowd along with the band. He eventually signed her to a small publishing deal that allowed Dean to connect with other writers and producers.
