One of Canada’s first black guerrilla marketers, Marva Jackson Lord, explains her transition from fax and phone to web development in Wales.
Marva Jackson Lord is a Jamaican-Canadian writer based in Wales. She is the founder of Griots Productions and Griots Arts, a creative media consulting and arts admin digital service. When social media was in its infancy, and traditional media outlets derided the birth of what was then called new media, Marva was one of Canada’s first guerrilla marketers working with digital media pioneers, nuNet. She hosts and produces Griots Poetry, a monthly poetry reading and performance evening in Hay-on-Wye.
