United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I am Jeremy Grant, a passionate and inspirational creative consultant with over 15 years of experience in design and video editing. My journey has allowed me to support a diverse clientele across both the third and private sectors, helping them achieve their goals through engaging content and innovative solutions. As the founder of jezpoetic.com, I have successfully combined my love for spoken word poetry with my skills in digital art to create impactful performances and workshops that explore themes of mental wellbeing and empowerment.
In addition to my work as a creative consultant, I founded FORM180 CIC, a community project dedicated to mentoring young people. This initiative has been instrumental in helping individuals turn their lives around by building their skills and aspirations. My experience as a Digital Skills Officer has further honed my abilities in graphic design and video production, allowing me to contribute significantly to community projects aimed at enhancing employability. I thrive in collaborative environments and am always eager to bring out the best in my team while delivering high-quality content.
