Awareness, knowledge, investment, and opportunity are key to sustaining the success of craft & design industries, especially in Africa and the global South. As these industries continue to evolve, they continue to draw attention from a global audience keen to learn more about them. At the same time, the artisan businesses within the industry are finding themselves having to develop the necessary business skills required to meet a demanding global standard and gain the visibility that will propel and sustain their brands in a highly competitive industry.

My dedicated consultancy services connect galleries, museums, retailers, collectors, and other cultural institutions with artisans, designers, makers, and artists. I also provide information, building awareness with research, article writing, curation, and speaking engagements. And, to help improve their visibility, I work with individuals and small to medium artisan business owners seeking to start or grow a successful and sustainable artisan brand.
