I'm Akinwale Fayemiro, a storyteller working across documentary filmmaking, performing arts marketing, and public speaking. At the heart of my work is a simple belief: stories have the power to connect people, shift perspectives, and create meaningful impact.
Professionally, I am a Marketing Coordinator with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, where I help develop and deliver integrated marketing campaigns across digital, social, and live performance platforms. Working closely with creative, media, and communications teams, I support artists and organisations in connecting with audiences and turning ideas into memorable cultural experiences.
My wider experience across the BBC has included roles in orchestral management, live radio production during the BBC at the Edinburgh Festivals (2023), audience development, and development research with BBC Studios (2025). These experiences have shaped my creative thinking, strengthened my collaborative approach, and deepened my understanding of audience engagement across the arts and media.
Alongside my work in marketing, I am a documentary filmmaker focused on stories of identity, resilience, representation, and access. Through short films and digital storytelling projects, I seek to amplify underrepresented voices and explore the experiences that bring us closer together. My work combines thoughtful storytelling with strong visual communication, drawing on my professional and academic background in Digital Media, Corporate Communications and Business Operations.
Beyond film and marketing, I am an active speaker and conversation leader, sharing insights on storytelling, creative careers, networking, and visibility. Whether on stage, online, or behind the camera, my goal remains the same: to create work that resonates, opens doors, and inspires meaningful change—one story at a time.
