about
I’m an Amsterdam-based cultural consultant who helps organisations make sense to non-mainstream communities and subcultures on the basis of qualitative research, anthropological enquiry and my immersion in said communities, and provides them access to my extensive network of creative professionals for the execution of related projects.
The specifics of my role vary according to the requirements of a project, thus, aside from cultural consultancy, I’ve hosted talks for AKQA, LVRN, ModeMuze and Museum van Wereldculturen, moderated discussion panels for Sneakerness, conducted interviews for CBRE IM and Gemeente Amsterdam, written articles for Dazed, Patta, OneWorld, Marie Claire and British iD, and given guest lectures at AMFI, Universiteit van Amsterdam ROCvA and Zadkine College.
I'm also a connoisseur of contemporary fashion from Africa, one dedicated to exploring and showcasing the continent’s vibrant, innovative and diverse fashion scenes and forming a bridge between African designers and international audiences. I provide insights and analyses to organisations interested in these scenes, write and lecture on fashion from Africa, and provide a foothold in Europe to emerging designers from Africa via Showroom, an creative space and boutique I founded with Coco Olakunle.
