A Little Bit About Me

Shawndra Onwuchekwa

A mover, a builder, a creator.

My grandmother, Doe, always told me I had a knack for creating order out of chaos and a love for beautiful things. This has shaped who I am and what I do. It’s also led me to live out my purpose of creating access for others like me and making room at the table.

I am in the business of events and experiences but it is my mission to create joy through these environments and artfully interpret the way customer’s experience a brand.

When I’m not working with brilliant brands, I love spending time in nature, hanging with my husband and daughter, or singing soul music at the top of my lungs.
