Growing next-gen
products and cultural experiences
I am a marketer and brand innovation expert, specializing in the growth of next-gen products and cultural experiences. I began my career in publishing and performing arts, working across fashion, entertainment, and festival production at FORM, SXSW, and TOA. These experiences showed me the impact of technology on the evolution of society and inspired me to educate people about its potential.
Over the past decade, I’ve upskilled people and helped companies to navigate the emerging tech landscape. First as the co-founder of the I/O Avenue coding academy and later by growing WeWork's coding bootcamp across Europe and the US. I’ve built educational communities with over 40k members, hosting 200+ conversations with leading critical thinkers from Vogue, Google, LVMH, Vice, IBM, and others.
Driven by a conviction in the importance of virtual economies, I established my own studio and partnered with leading startups and heritage brands to digitize their IP. As a personal initiative to bring tech conversations to broader audiences, I launched the “CEREMONY” event series to inspire cross-sector collaboration between citizens, innovators, and legacy institutions. We’re only scratching the surface of what’s possible, and that potential excites me every day.
Today, I help purpose-built companies break through the noise and continue to educate as a visiting expert and keynote speaker for institutions such as the Vogue Singapore x Singapore Fashion Council Innovation Prize, The Future Laboratory, FWB Fest, Finnish National Opera and Ballet, University of Arts London, The Royal Institution, The British School of Fashion, and MIT.
