About Namakula .

Hello there, I'm Namakula (nah-mah-koo-lah), thanks for the visit. In a nutshell, over the past 20+ years I've cultivated a richly diverse career at a high level in hospitality, the arts, production and advertising, in the roles of video editor, creative producer and talent. As a result of my experience in key positions in vital points of the production process, I have a deep understanding of all the roles and attitudes necessary to execute a smooth and successful project--no matter what it may be. As an editor, producer and actor, I've supported and helmed projects throughout the US and abroad, in all the major markets: from Fortune 500 prestige brands, to low budget, passion projects. Whether I'm a creative contributor on an agency's new business pitch, managing clients, scheduling vendors, or cast as a VO talent, I'm poised in all roles. I’m proactive and shine when part of a solid team. I believe that my high work ethic and multi-faceted background makes me a valuable unicorn. I aim to create impactful, innovative work collaborating with a symbiotic team, while having fun along the way!
