Hi there!
I'm Eli, a versatile Multi-Disciplinary Creative fueled by the boundless energy of creativity and collaboration. In my roles as Content Creator and Strategist, I've had the pleasure of weaving engaging narratives for prestigious brands such as Ralph Lauren Fragrances, Zinus, Nanoleaf, Spa Sciences, NOMATIC, and Azzaro Fragrances. My journey has also involved crafting enchanting soundscapes, installations and experiences for esteemed brands and institutions like Vera Wang, Victoria's Secret, New York Botanical Garden, The Royal Ontario Museum, A&E Networks, Sunsilk, and more.
With a vibrant community of over 80K followers on Instagram and content viewed over 7.5 million times, I navigate seamlessly through diverse niches. What sets me apart isn't just my creative prowess; it's also my unwavering commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. Passionate about uplifting minority voices, especially those of divergent voices and the LGBTQ community, I believe in using art as a powerful tool to connect with people, uniting them through shared experiences.
