They are a creative who has worked across various disciplines with a focus on promoting work that amplifies the voices of those overlooked within society. Ahadi is interested in building upon the contributions that have already been made within the creative sphere, with particular interest in Black culture, and how we can further expand the creative industries globally to create spaces for human connection to thrive.

Ahadi aspires to pursue their interests in film, acting/performance, modelling, and creative producing & direction to create and be part of work that builds upon the contributions of Black culture to the global creative industries.

Ahadi believes that change happens through connection which creates space for collaboration and celebration. By utilising this they aim to continue to explore the ways art can be used to cultivate euphoria, whilst continually using storytelling to inspire and spark important conversations.
