Film, Festivals & Cultural Programming

Former Director, Black Star International Film Festival (BSIFF)

I volunteered as Director of BSIFF for 5 years, where I helped reposition the festival as the largest and most impactful festival in Ghana, forge strategic partnerships and community, while amplifying the creativity of filmmakers and creative talents.

I continue to work with film festivals and cultural institutions as a curator, producer, and industry strategist, with a special focus on Africa’s growing creative economy.
