Gracien

I’m a results driven professional who loves bringing people and brands together! From talent engagement and employer branding to event coordination and creative marketing, I enjoy finding new ways to make an impact. I’m passionate about social media, teamwork, and trying new ideas and so much more that keeps things exciting and meaningful.


About me

My creative journey started back in high school, where I joined a beat making program and discovered my passion for music production. I learned to use programs like FL Studio and Pro Tools, building songs from the ground up and diving deep into the world of sound. From there, I started wearing many hats branding myself and others, learning who to target, and figuring out how to network and gain exposure.

Along the way, I picked up photography and video editing, mastering different creative tools and becoming, as I like to call it, a bit of a creative mastermind. Once I got to college, I expanded into YouTube creating fun questionnaires around Florida with friends which taught me how much I love connecting with people through creativity and storytelling. That’s when I realized my true passion lies in creativity, content, and marketing.
