Intentional Events
Playback Session
this listening/Q&A event allowed fans & collaborators to gain deeper insight into Kwame Adu's album conceptualization and creation processes. with a 25-minute runtime, Kwame Adu’s debut LP ‘Shinji’s Album' (2023) is chock-full of poignant imagery, concise wordplay, and fresh production. I ideated and hosted the playback session in collaboration with Pirate Studios to give the artist space to delve into his inspirations!
SUMMER SELECTS
a tastefully curated home experience post-covid lockdown (2021)
disillusioned by event shutdowns and venue closures, i decided to host a couple of house shows in my backyard during the summer of 2021. over the span of two nights with minimal marketing, i was able to entertain over 100 houseguests and pay all the performers!
music possesses this undeniable power to bring people together. it is incredibly important to me that i help facilitate meaningful connections among creators so as to encourage collaboration in an increasingly competitive art world.

Creative Experience
an art collective highlighting marginalized voices and emphasizing community by way of on and off-campus events, mixers, showcases, panels, and more
(2018 - 2020)
the fresh faces mixer/showcase is an annual gathering i spearheaded as executive producer of creative experience. the ethos of this event was to showcase newer artists and create a space for them to connect with each other so that all creators felt included, not just the “popular” ones within the close-knit community.
first fridays is an event series sponsored by ground zero, an on-campus performance venue at usc, in an attempt to increase student attendance after its temporary closure. here’s some footage from the show i co-produced for black history month 2019!
