Teddy Hamstra, Ph.D.

 I am a narrative strategist and creative consultant with a research and writing Ph.D. from the University of Southern California. With eight years of experience in project management, content creation, and event planning, I thrive in helping cultural institutions and nonprofits communicate their missions. Applying the rigorous critical thinking and detailed organization of a humanities scholar with a belief that a story well-told can change the world in perceptible ways, I have expertise in amplifying the power of an organization’s core message and values. Skilled at fostering sustained yet exponential growth and working cross-functionally with various departments, I have consistently developed successful public-facing content and programming for numerous exhibitions, online platforms and publications. My collaborative and creative mindset is reflected in a proven ability to deliver transformative results.
