creative projects
Outside of the corporate world (and often creating bridges to it), I work with creatives with big ideas to support in bringing them to life.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked in a variety of creative industries, in countries and cultures around the world, from grass roots community projects to major brand partnerships and creative marketing campaigns.
In particular, my experiences include:
Co-founder of Asa Baako, an award-winning music and arts festival in Ghana, launched in 2011; promoting sustainable tourism, community development and breakthrough artists, musicians and performers from Ghana and around the world.
Working with independent artists to promote and showcase their work; including Jon Fidler and Modla, facilitating international partnerships and commissions with brands like Reebok, Converse, Nike and more; and street photographer, Gil Ribeiro, coordinating his inaugural exhibition in Lisbon,
In addition to these independent projects, I’ve always worked between brands and creatives, in sponsorships, commissions, brand experiences at major music festivals and music/entertainment marketing campaigns for brands like Xbox, Ford and more.
As a coach, mentor and consultant, I draw upon these experiences to support creative entrepreneurs and businesses in:
Coaching through the psychological ups and downs of the creative and entrepreneurial process
Defining a personal or company brand
Taking creative or business ideas from conceptualisation to realisation
Brand partnerships, commissions, collaborations and sponsorship
Project, event and change management
Integrating sales into the creative process
