I’m a project manager and creative producer with over 12 years of experience in arts, culture & entertainment, passionate about bringing diverse talent into the creative industry - from artists to arts managers.
I founded and sold an award-winning international cultural agency in Brazil, working with emerging artists and servicing brands such as Converse and Red Bull through brand experiences in arts & culture and have since worked in a variety of institutions, delivering international events, curating programmes and managing private-public partnerships.
I’m now the founder of I LIKE NETWORKING, a mentoring & networking initiative for women and non-binary people in the creative industries with the aim of fostering a more diverse workforce through our mentoring initiative, event series, podcast and digital resources. Launched during the pandemic, it attracted over 420 applicants on the pilot program, supporting over 71 mentees directly and featured on vehicles such as Evening Standard and Stylist.
I create career development events, run networking initiatives and speak in podcasts and webinars on topics from entrepreneurship, freelancing, networking and mentoring. Recent appearances include General Assembly, Creative Entrepreneurs and You-Volution.
