Projects
I led both external and internal communications for the Jacob Collier x LEGO Group x COLORSxSTUDIOS collaboration, managing the operational flow across teams to bring this unique project to life. This partnership featured a one-of-a-kind COLORS SHOW where Jacob Collier performed ‘Little Blue,’ weaving together musical and visual storytelling with LEGO’s iconic creativity. Accompanying the performance, a COLORS CLOSE-UP interview showcased Jacob’s reflections on his inspirations and his journey in crafting his ‘happy place’ through music and LEGO.
When Levi’s® approached COLORSxSTUDIOS, they had one clear goal: to bridge the gap between their global audience and their growing brand. Our response? We filled that space with the power of music.
The #ReflectYourOriginalité campaign embodies our shared values—being unapologetically yourself, embracing what makes you unique, and showcasing that originality to the world.
Our collaboration included a standout COLORS performance by Jewel Usain, striking visuals, in-depth interviews with Jewel Usain and Levi’s® Global CMO, Kenny Mitchell, a celebration in Paris, and an exclusive Canadian Tuxedo (jean jacket & pants) designed in partnership with COLORS.
As the Partnership Manager, I led the collaboration, managing key relationships and deadlines to ensure execution.

I spearheaded Aluna’s foray into the Web3 space, creating innovative fan experiences that bridged music, art, and blockchain technology. Her journey began with the Decentraland Metaverse Festival, where she performed alongside icons like Deadmau5 and Paris Hilton for thousands of virtual attendees. Building on this momentum, we introduced an exclusive wearable NFT: Aluna’s virtual headphones. This collectible not only symbolized fandom but also unlocked access to a private listening room in Decentraland, where fans could exclusively experience her unreleased track, Forget About Me, featuring Diplo. This activation was particularly innovative, marking a shift from Aluna’s traditionally physical sales to an entirely digital experience, from the wearable to the listening environment itself.
Following the success of this debut activation, I helped Aluna expand her presence in the Web3 ecosystem by releasing additional NFTs in collaboration with renowned 3D artists like Serwah Attafuah. These projects spanned platforms such as Zora, Rarible, Sound, and OpenSea, further showcasing her music and vision in digital art formats. To deepen fan engagement, I also facilitated the launch of her fan token, FEVER, in collaboration with P00LS, providing an innovative way for her community to connect and interact with her work.

At Route Studio, I took on and managed a variety of design projects for artists such as Mk.gee, The Hellp, Brandon Banks, cehryl, and AlunaGeorge. These projects encompassed everything from album art direction and visual branding to campaign assets.
Side Projects
Helped usher and manage the Berlin based Killing a Friend collective into the Web3 space through the Crisis project, an innovative experiment designed to transform The Worthless Album into a community owned asset. The project challenges the traditional music industry’s monetization model by distributing ownership of the album as NFTs across multiple seasons. Each season unlocks new versions of the album or additional creative materials, allowing the community to collectively elevate its value. This experiment aims to realign the relationship between releases, value, and community, defying current industry norms.
