BLACKHOUSE
02 The Design
Their ambitions eventually drove them to further develop their talents and networks on opposite coasts. Bunmi spent over a decade working for a large NYC event production house collaborating with the industry’s top professionals. Her experience leading large-scale designs and high-end projects gave her a keen eye for technical design and production management.
Across the land in San Diego, Casandra became an in-demand independent consultant in business development and marketing. Working with cutting edge technology, complex marketing campaigns, and venture capital funding, she formed the skills and savvy to construct just about anything from the ground up.
