About

About

I take the mess and chaos and turn it into order, structure, and clarity for the brands, the teams, and the communities that depend on it.

I bring both the creative instinct and the operational discipline to make projects work at the highest level. Having founded my own start-up and produced my own events, I know firsthand what's at stake behind every deadline, every contract, and every activation. That experience is the foundation for the intention, care, and precision I bring to everything I touch.

For the past 8 years, I've been doing this from the ground up. As the founder of Zaya, a creative lab at the intersection of art, science, and mindfulness, I've owned and driven projects end-to-end: producing festivals, coordinating multi-partner activations, and managing the kinds of brand relationships that require as much trust as they do logistics (see past clients below).

Before founding Zaya , I worked in finance, managing a $300M business for Fortune 500 company, building financial models for investment banks, and operating in some of the most high-stakes environments there are. That foundation means I bring genuine financial rigour to every project I manage, from budget oversight to stakeholder reporting, without ever losing sight of the vision.

Because I work at the intersection of culture, community, and strategy, I've learned the importance of strategic design and use my skills in design and analytics towards every deck, document, and deliverable I produce (see design work below). I've secured sponsorship value of up to $20k over the last 5 years and saved companies, as well as my own, thousands through product partnerships and financial sponsorships, creating materials that speak to a partner's community, their audience, and their bottom line.

"Projects alone don't build community, the people behind them do. My job is to create the conditions, hold the structure, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks so that magic has room to happen." - Nadeya
