I help companies, institutions, and creative projects to communicate the value they provide through a method I call Strategic Story Design.In other words, I work with people to define their business or project, solidify their value proposition, and from that, create an authentic and robust story to share it.Currently, I consult on stories of all kinds- with a special place in my heart for youth & family-oriented projects, themed & branded entertainment, and food. Narrative design is my jam, whether it’s a concept, script, or pitch deck.#Dramaturgy #StoryEditor*Send an InMail or email (hello@kendravalentine.com) for more information.More?Well, I'm an American with Swedish citizenship who has lived in Europe (Stockholm & Berlin) for over a decade.In the U.S, I worked in film production for studios such as Warner Bros. and Universal, as well as commercials. Thereafter I went to Stockholm for my Master's degree in Media Industry Studies. My thesis focused on defining "industry" in the Swedish film context and further propose a creative strategy for growth in the future. Basically, an entrepreneurial approach to creative & cultural industry policy.I studied entrepreneurial thinking and strategy afterward because I’ve always liked connecting the dots between business and creativity, and I wanted a method to my madness. I was selected by the Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship as one of 6 persons for an interdisciplinary team in the first White Label program. There I represented Sweden in the European Business Plan of the Year competition at London Business School pitching a food product I developed, got training from an IDEO Alum on design-thinking, and ran around the streets of India future-forecasting the future of "authenticity". And that's just my education. The last years after that have been diverse- I've been fortunate to work on a variety of projects from coaching at accelerators to dramaturgy in immersive theater.So, a long background of straddling the line between creativity and business, before I knew what either really was.
