With experience the spans in creating culturally relevant, engaging content across digital and television platforms, with a strong focus on youth and sports audiences.

Leveraging deep understanding of street culture and audience segmentation, successfully created content that spoke authentically to the youth demographic, helping to increase brand awareness and engagement.
