ABOUT ME
I am an experienced media and Communications expert based in Imo State, Nigeria. My work is focused on helping organisations tell their stories to attract the right stakeholders, build a community and ensure effective internal processes.
I am a multimedia storyteller. To me, storytelling is how we reshape our world. The world is like a clean canva waiting for us to paint on and I use images, shapes, videos and words to carefully tell even the smallest bit of story that have the power to change everything.
I pay close attention to details and emotions as you would see in most of my works.
A bulk of my work revolves around the social development sector having had the opportunity to work with several international and local non-profits such as CSAAE, Voice (Oxfam), Open Society Initiative of West Africa, Marycare and The Female Media Network. I have also been opportuned to work with other top businesses such as CWG plc, Globus bank, Vedic Lifecare Hospital etc.
