Seriousness with Andrew Shot my me. #portrait #blackandwhite #corporatecreative #nikond800 #hardlight #deanelliottphotography (at Station Drive Precinct)
āI work in commodities in Mayfair and trade in oil, diamonds, mining and metals. I work in a very corporate environment but personally Iām very creative. Iām dark and light but I enjoy the dark side more.āĀ
If you could do anything what would it be?
āI would open schools for girls around the world. As many as I could. For empowering disadvantaged children but I think girls are potentially more vulnerable than boys. I was born in Africa and had a really tough time being an African girl growing up but being in London allows me to be me, everything isĀ so accepting. You can be who you want tho be in London. Itās amazing.
Influences?
Oh my goodness lots of things! Music, arts, other people, just everything around me. I love all colours, I love flowers, I love lingerie. I love vintage.
Best advice?
Always be true to yourself no matter how hard it may get. Stick to your guns. Donāt change for anybody.

Letās nurdle and say we did
If you work with corporateers, youāve heard āletās noodle on thatā as a phrase meant to suggest (imagine!) thinking further on something before taking action.
Itās akin to their other favorite, āput a pin in itāāwhich, on behalf of anyone humping around a skinful of shrapnel from an exploded grenade, I find deeply irritating. But ānoodleā seems to be a misunderstood and then ignorantly evangelized version of ānurdle,ā which Wordnik defines as āTo gently waffle or muse on a subject which one clearly knows little about.ā
So not only is misunderstanding something and ignorantly evangelizing it rampant in corporate America, but the very thing thatās misunderstood seems to account for the likelihood of being misunderstood.
I salute you, nurdle.
