Mebrak Tareke

I am British-Eritrean, a Londoner. Now based between NYC and Mexico City. I am the principal at TIMS, a global cultural strategy and storytelling consultancy. I offer advisory, strategy and narrative storytelling services to luxury, financial, tech brands with a vested interest in art and social impact. I also micro blog about art, technology, politics and culture. I am currently developing an art-tech app idea for the global African diaspora. I have been working as a brand marketing, cultural strategist for well over 12 years and in narrative storytelling for 20 + years.

I am proud that I started to do the groundwork for the research and development phase of AFA, my art tech app idea for the global African diaspora. I am proud of the strategic/advisory work I did with a handful of SMEs in the art, design and impact space in NYC and Mexico City. I am proud of a book on the history of art collectors I managed as a lead storyteller and editor in both English and French. And the brain trust of peers, mentors and mentees that I have built and leveraged into meaningful collaborators over the past year.

I am looking to work with more long-term clients in the luxury, tech, financial sectors in a fractional capacity, helping them unlock the power of art and social impact to catalyze business, systemic and innovation growth. I would also like to lean in more to cultural strategy and to productize my work into clinics, audits, workshops, as well as advisory sessions as bite, snack and meal sized offerings.
