My next guest is entrepreneur and creative, Merrick Porchéddu. In 2016, she started Artist Uprising - a concept to bridge the gap between creatives and commerce. She felt that when paired together, these partnerships can change an artist’s career and introduce brands to new audiences. Merrick also co-founded Belmont Creative, a creative agency in Dallas, and is the founder and CEO of Artist Uprising Studios, a premier rentable studio for photography, film, and commercial webinar needs located in Richardson, Texas. In this episode, we have a fun chat about curating the perfect art, entertainment, and branding for a wide range of clients and her team’s goal of using local artists and creatives for each project.
