Florida Multicultural District • 2021–Present

Developing a creative operation capable of serving more than 200 organizations

The Florida Multicultural District needed more than individual graphics or event support. It needed a sustainable creative and production department capable of serving a growing network of more than 200 churches and organizations throughout Florida.

As Creative Director, I founded and developed a multidisciplinary media and creative team responsible for live production, video, photography, graphic design, broadcast, social media, and organizational communications.

The Challenge

The organization supported numerous ministries, leaders, conferences, and large-scale events, each with different audiences and communication needs.

Creative requests were increasing, but the organization needed consistent branding, clearer workflows, stronger production systems, and a team capable of delivering quality work across both live and digital environments.

My Role

I provided creative leadership and production strategy across the organization, including:

• Building and leading a 10–15-person creative team

• Establishing production workflows and creative standards

• Directing live events for audiences of 2,000–4,000+

• Producing broadcasts reaching more than 5,000 online viewers

• Overseeing photography, video, graphics, and social content

• Managing schedules, budgets, equipment, and vendor relationships

• Coaching team members and developing new creative leaders

• Collaborating with organizational leadership on messaging and strategy

The Approach

I developed a team-centered creative structure that connected organizational goals with practical production systems.

Clear roles, repeatable workflows, training, and brand standards gave the team a consistent foundation. Projects were approached as connected experiences rather than isolated deliverables: event production supported digital content, photography supported communications, and social campaigns extended the reach of live gatherings.

The Outcome

The department grew into a sustainable creative operation serving more than 200 churches and organizations.

Its work supported in-person audiences of 2,000–4,000+, broadcasts reaching more than 5,000 online viewers, and digital communications extending across multiple communities. Through stronger storytelling, SEO, and coordinated social campaigns, the organization achieved more than 200% growth in online engagement.

Most importantly, the organization gained a creative team and production system capable of continuing to develop beyond any single project or event.
