I am a creative director and multidisciplinary storyteller with 20 years of experience shaping ideas that connect culture, creativity, and community. My work bridges design, branding, and content across music, fashion, lifestyle, sports, and entertainment—all rooted in the belief that creativity should move people and create impact.

At Giants of Africa, I lead creative strategy, design, and brand for initiatives that use basketball as a platform to educate, inspire, and empower African youth to dream big. I collaborate with various teams and partners to bring bold ideas to life through storytelling, design, and experiences that celebrate culture and purpose.

Before GOA, I spent nearly a decade as Creative Director at 7 Communications, leading a multidisciplinary team across industries including automotive, nonprofit, tech, and lifestyle—crafting brand stories, campaigns, and experiences that connect deeply with audiences. My creative foundation was built at Sony Music Entertainment, where I designed for some of the world’s leading artists and cultural brands—an experience that shaped my approach to storytelling through music, emotion, and visual design.

Every project for me is a blend of strategic thinking, design expertise, and leadership. Guiding teams and brands to express their voice with clarity, authenticity, and cultural relevance is always the goal.
