HI! I'M NEA

A Creative Director, music photographer, and brand strategist with over 20 years of experience. I help artists, music brands, and festivals turn sound into story: building visual worlds and brand presence that hit as hard as the music itself.

My career started long before the photo pit. I spent two decades leading creative, social, production, and influencer teams for global franchises like Minecraft and its movie, Overwatch, Diablo, and my music content brand, where I learned how to translate emotion into engagement and chaos into clarity.

I’ve built digital audiences of over 40 million views for my drumming brand, guided global brand voices seen by millions more, and learned the rhythms of how people connect, online and in person.

Now, I channel that expertise into the world that’s always been my heartbeat: music.
Whether it’s a live show, a tour, music festival, or a full rebrand, I help artists and teams craft visuals, strategy, and storytelling that make fans feel something; the kind of work that lives beyond the scroll and lingers like an encore.

WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE

Creative Direction & Content Creation
concert photography, social media content & strategy, visual identity, campaign styling
Content that resonates with your vision and image. I turn raw live energy into cohesive visual identities that carry emotion, depth, and intent across your online and offline presence, always aligned to your goals.

Marketing Psychology & Audience Growth
online marketing for fanbase growth strategy, engagement planning, and storytelling that connects with your audience. Social, website, and further online presence
Ready to grow your fan base? I guide clients through brand tone, voice, audience development, and storytelling that resonate with audiences on a gut level. Because music is emotion before it’s logic.

Leadership & Collaboration
creative team leadership, campaign execution, on-tour content management
With years managing global teams across social, community, content, production, and influencers, I can lead full-scale creative squads or work solo to deliver seamless, professional execution.

In short: I connect artistry, audience, and strategy to create an emotional bond with your audience for a lasting impression.

A PERSONAL NOTE

When I’m not behind the scenes you’ll find me behind a drum kit, usually chasing the same pulse that drives every great show: connection. I believe the best content and visuals don’t just capture moments, they build legacies and a lasting connection with fans.

If your goal is to make your audience feel every beat and keep coming for more, I’m your person. Ready to bring your sound to life through visuals that hit just as hard? Let’s make it happen
