BRAND PARTNERSHIPS

In the summer of 2023, Ace welcomed the return of its long-running Artist in Residence (AIR) program. The AIR program — which hosted over 350 artists at Ace properties in the last decade — relaunched simultaneously at eight Ace locations globally, providing all participating artists space to both create and exhibit work. The residencies began in June and ran on a quarterly basis, with new works exhibited by each artist following a month-long stay at the hotel.
I worked as a liaison between the Ace Hotel New Orleans property and a variety of artists from Material Institute helping them pinpoint what medium of work they wanted to display at the exhibition and executing a successful opening reception.
I spearheaded a partnership with Exclave Spirits that allowed recorded conversations to transpire between creatives from different backgrounds and the owner, Andrew Albert. Andrew has built a brand that is dedicated to paying homage to black ingenuity through storytelling and partnerships. In the Exclave Moments series, he tasks guests with unpacking their creative processes and led a discussion centered around authenticity, freedom, and self-determination.
No Pulp Records first started in October of 2018 with the private collection of owner, Joe Lyle. Currently, through the process of buying, selling, and trading, we have amassed some 50,000 eclectic new & used vinyl records and tape cassettes.
No Pulp Records has always been, in the mind of its creator, a cultural renaissance project. They have long-standing goals of creating a space where creatives and art lovers can come and experience with their whole being. They aim to be a communal space where knowledge is gained, friendships are created, and memories are made.
I partnered with No Pulp to bring guests a monthly curated Spotify playlist, record of the month, and a fresh supply of wax monthly to Lovage Ace Hotel New Orleans’ coffee shop.
I had the pleasure of working with the Mardi Gras Indian Council during my time at Faubourg Brewing Co. where I worked with a creative team to develop a commemorative poster and seasonal 12pk to honor the partnership between the brewery and the culture bearers of the city.
The partnership also consisted of a mini festival deemed MGIC Day, where we invited Black Masking Indians, and social aid & pleasure clubs to perform at the facility.
I partnered with Forum for Equality to execute Pride Month programming at Faubourg Brewing Co. that featured a kid-friendly drag performance, queer ran pop-ups, and a donation to their organization for every pint of beer sold during pride month.
I was a part of the team at Faubourg Brewing Co. which had a long-standing partnership with the New Orleans Saints in which we created seasonal co-branded merchandise, 12pks and executed a series of branded activations through the 2020 and 2021 NFL seasons.
Through the music collective, Pinkroom Project, I was a part of the team that was able to land a partnership with Vice Magazine that included a short documentary on the collective, a Multi-page spread for the music issue of their 2017 magazine and a live show at the famous Baby’s Alright in NYC.
I partnered with drag wrestling collective, Choke Hole, to execute a 2-day drag wrestling show to celebrate the 5 year anniversary of Choke Hole during pride month of 2023.
