About Feranmi Fakorode
I\'m an empathetic first-generation Nigerian-American with a father in the NYPD, a Mom who\'s a Registered Nurse, and four brothers. While my parents hoped I\'d become a doctor, comedy captured my curiosity at a young age. This curiosity would latch itself onto Tootsie Pop commercials and catchy jingles but materialized as an Anthropology degree. I began my career by consulting with small businesses and artists while jumpstarting creative ideas applicable to their brand goals. Fast forward a few certifications and brand partnerships later, and I\'m proud to work in a field where understanding people pays off!In short, I\'m a first-generation Nigerian-American who now combines creativity, culture, and conversation with a splash of alliteration.HARD SKILLSAdobe Premiere Pro • OBS Studios & Streamlabs • Stand-Up Comedy Proficient with iPhone, GoPro, and DJI camera systems.SELECT CLIENTSPepsi • Jimmy Johns • St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital • Bask & Lather • Olaide’s Kitchen • Legacy Dumbo • St. Mark’s Comedy Club • Broadway Comedy Club • Eastville Comedy Club • Greenwich Comedy Club • Laughing Buddha Comedy Festival • Vermont Comedy Festival • We The People University • Summer DiscoveryCLIENT CATEGORIESTechnology • Comedy • Food • Drinks • Entertainment • Hair • Legal • Medical • Health & Fitness • Policing • Sports • Education PLATFORM EXPERIENCE Facebook • Instagram • YouTube • Twitter • LinkedIn • Pinterest • Twitch • TikTok •FUN FACTSI’m top 5 Nigerian Snow Boarders in the world.I danced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.I’ve been doing Stand-Up comedy for 10+ years.
