For 17 years, I worked on and led teams of incredibly talented people—creating everything in the advertising and marketing world. I experienced the urgency of needing to have the right people in place, at the right time. When you had the right people, it was magic. When you did not have the right people, it was a challenge. Today, at Meaningful Gigs, I am fortunate enough to be able to help solve some of those challenges for Operations and Creative leaders around the country. We are connecting a community of highly talented creatives in Africa to brands, enterprises, and customers here in the states. If you are in Design, Marketing, or Creative Operations and need relevant, available, and extremely talented creatives who can make a tangible difference in your business, we are here to listen, and to help. We're on a mission to create 100,000 jobs in Africa and change the future of creative work around the world. #creativeoperations #designops #marketingops #creative #meaningfulgigs
