Q1 in a nutshell…for the readers:
This year started stronger than I expected. I made it to the spring equinox in one piece (just about), and found myself surrounded by people who stretch my imagination and remind me why I love this work 🌱
I kicked off the year with
@mrhaast my favourite mad scientist with a V12 brain. We spent weeks talking about community, creativity and impact, and I got to design something special for his workshop. “How much is your imagination worth?” has been echoing in my mind ever since.
Then came a beautiful shoot with
@shanaz.mp3 and
@darioshotthat . Shanaz is one of those rare people whose warmth stays with you long after she’s gone. We’re working on something exciting…that’s all I can say for now.
I also supported the first “How I Built This” with the incomparable
@munachiso_n ✨ Since meeting her (and her wild network of brilliant Black women), I’ve been in awe of the way they raise the bar every single time. The speakers? World class.
Next was EMERGE, a complex, beautiful success led by
@devantevaughan @mr_tsb and Mo, with an incredible team behind it. It reminded me that real strength lies in your people and how well you communicate. I also partnered with Big Creative Education to bring volunteers on board, which was invaluable for everyone involved💜
Another shoot followed, details under wraps, so here’s a picture of
@reissdantae and Jai instead😂 Two souls I adore. Reiss is a phenomenal ambidextrous talent, and Jai’s energy is pure softness. Huge thanks to
@thisiskvng for bringing us together!
March arrived with sunshine and the highlights to match:
• The second “How I Built This” with
@joekinvi , inspiring and dreamy energy with great conversations 🌍💷
•
@h.lls.h.lls livestream with Mahalia, Tay Iwar, Tommy Saint + more, proof the internet can be powerful when used with intention❤️
• “On Her Plate” with
@theudocollection 🤩 girl power, good food, real connection
• Co‑production for
@144studios_ showcase
@saasilonearth ,
@cheyennemusicofficial and
@entirelymanny blew me away! 🏕️
Been busy to say the least🤞🏿more to come!
