I work with organizations and individuals to elevate authenticity in the work – and the workplace.
Milk advertising is one of the greatest propaganda triumphs of all time. (Don’t @ me) Here’s the thing, I won’t drink it, but I also won’t knock it - Milk, diamonds and cigarettes stand as testament of the power of storytelling and the immense influence of marketing. Why does this matter to me? I'm passionate about utilizing marketing to connect cultures and communities. Creativity can build bridges, burst bubbles, and bring us together - online and IRL.
Hi. I am Neisha, a champion for creativity and culture and I’m on a mission to transform not just our work but also our workplaces. Through my career working on hundreds of clients in various roles - copywriter, creative director, creative strategist, head of inclusive content, teacher, speaker, mentor, manager, DEI leader, community builder, advisory board chair - I understand how to identify the insights, craft the strategies, and create the stories that move people.
I’ve touched over a dozen industries, from CPG to nonprofits to financial services – creating compelling creative and organizational change. At Meta alone, I started and led: a Health Creative Team, an Inclusive Creative Practice, an internship program, a global image library, a global training initiative, and several community groups. No matter where I’ve sat or what I worked on, I’ve seen one thing over and over again - culturally-competent environments create culture-shifting ideas.
The future is multicultural, multidimensional and demanding more from brands and businesses when it comes to content, corporate culture and communications.
Next Level Up Creative is focused on using creativity and authenticity to help build more culturally-competent environments and executions, starting from the inside out. Our sweet spot lies in the ability to bridge creative innovation, organization transformation, and individual empowerment.
On a personal level, I love a good cheese plate, murder mystery shows, and spending as much time as possible near the ocean.
What drives me is a fundamental desire to create a world where my kids (and yours) feel unconditionally accepted and safe to be their authentic selves. That’s why I focus my work on the two areas we spend most of our time - immersed in content and engulfed by work. Imagine being able to walk through the world not feeling othered? Imagine what you could accomplish?
Stalk, lurk or drop a note:
If you’re looking for a creatively-minded, culturally-driven, business-focused ninja - schedule a call. I’d love to explore how we can start infusing authenticity in your endeavors.
