What I'm looking for

I'm building a career at the intersection of creative direction, project management, and creative operations, with particular interest in fashion, music, culture, events, and visual experiences. I'm seeking to contribute in a fast-paced creative environment.

At Afronated, I coordinate operational activities and support creative projects, campaigns, and events from planning through execution. I help organise teams, responsibilities, timelines, and deliverables, and contribute to creative direction and audience-facing experiences.

Across university productions and the My Why Initiative, I supported project administration, event coordination, and on-ground execution. I helped coordinate logistics for outreach activities, including food support, medical outreach, and an empowerment session.
