Please provide examples of how you have shown passion and had positive impact in your career (Approx 100-300 words)
I have shown passion and positive impact in my career by consistently turning creative work into practical value for businesses, young people, and communities. As a co-founder of a media and marketing company, I don’t only focus on producing content, but on solving real problems such as visibility, credibility, and growth. One example is my work on large infrastructure and renewable energy projects, where I led the production of short documentary-style videos that showcased local youth-owned businesses and engineering students involved in the projects. These videos were used by stakeholders for reporting, marketing, and community engagement, while also giving small businesses professional exposure they would not normally access. I have also worked with construction and automotive companies to improve their public image through structured branding, professional video content, and internal communication tools. In several cases, this helped businesses position themselves more professionally when approaching larger contractors and partners. Beyond client work, I actively mentor interns and young creatives by giving them hands-on experience in graphic design, photography, and video production. I guide them through real projects, deadlines, and client expectations, helping them build both technical skills and work ethic. My passion lies in using media as a practical tool for growth, skills development, and long-term impact rather than just aesthetics.

The Rising Star Programme, operated by BlackBark Productions, has been established for the purposes of recognising, celebrating and connecting young talented people who have a capacity for achievement and success and who contribute in an inspirational manner to the future of our nation. The qualities that elevate Rising Stars to the top go beyond performance and technical excellence. Rising Stars are polished, brilliant individuals with tremendous promise and great talent who excel for reasons that go far beyond their technical abilities alone.

Talented people make things happen, are highly committed to achieving goals, innovate very rapidly, and create a great deal of value (for companies and/or themselves) when their talent is spotted and harnessed.

The Programme aims to be a significant and sustainable vehicle through which organisations, our country and our continent can identify and nurture these “organisational and national assets” who are set to play a key role in shaping the future of our country and our continent.

The Rising Star Programme is establishing a living community of young African talent that will be developed, mentored and provided with platforms for development and communication, therefore enabling them to become role models, opinion leaders and the inspiration for other future African Talent.
