ABOUT HOPE ROLLINS

Hope Leigh is currently based in Palm Springs, CA as a Partner at Sherpa Consulting, a boutique digital marketing firm. In the last 9 years she has developed digital strategies, websites, and content for 75+ brands and oversees the management of over 50+ company\'s social media presence. Her passion is in capturing joy, building community, and \'helping people look as cool online as they are in person\'- but her path there was not at traditional one. After receiving degrees from the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, and a BA from American University, Hope moved to Los Angeles pursuing a career in music. She won \"Pop Album of the Year\" at the LA Music Awards, was a tedX speaker, and toured internationally with several late night TV appearances and soundtrack features. In 2015, on a whim, she co-created a viral search for a man who was bullied online. Overnight, it became the #1 trending topic in the world on both Twitter and Facebook. After appearances on Ryan Seacrest, Entertainment Tonight, Today Show, Good Morning America, Insider, and many more - it was clear her knack for building engagement on a $0 budget was a rare one. She founded the DanceFree Movement, a NPO, that hosted an event for the man alongside Pharell, Moby, Tatyana Ali and more. She was also a contributing author to the book \" Shame Nation\" a modern textbook on cyber bullying along side Authors Sue Scheff and Monica Lewinsky. After this unanticipated hiatus from music- she joined Sherpa Consulting in a career pivot move. Her clients have ranged from MeUndies to NPR, Health Ade to Hedley & Bennet to brands led by Kevin Hart, Mike Tyson, and Lance Bass - festivals and hospitality groups. She builds brand identities online from zero, and helps anticipate and manage viral trends and brand development. In 2023 her team grew to 7 employees and 9 contractors. Seasonally she has been a curator and MC for Summit Series, and has a deep rooted love for the National Parks, and can often be found working remote within them.
