About Me
Steering art, creativity, and media toward innovation and community support fuels my passion for impactful business and product solutions. With over 12 years of art direction experience and a history of trailblazing ventures, I bring a distinct fusion of creative insight and entrepreneurial acumen. As the founder of a social enterprise for over 4 years, I've earned opportunities like being invited to the Facebook offices in Silicon Valley and participating in Red Bull's esteemed entrepreneur cohort (now Further), where I engaged with exceptional talents firsthand.
Moreover, my time as Creative Director at Imagnary House has enriched my skill set. Working closely with diverse illustrators, I've orchestrated the transformation of stories into captivating visual narratives, leading to the successful global sale of international rights. This experience underscores my belief that local talent deserves recognition on the global stage.
