About Me

Nefe Clarke

I'm a communications and marketing specialist based in Lagos, Nigeria. For over five years I've worked where communication meets people, managing client relationships, running campaigns, and coordinating projects that actually get delivered.

My work spans three things. I build email and campaign strategy, from segmentation and lifecycle sequences to the reporting that shows what actually worked. I write and produce, whether that is articles, scripts, podcasts, or documentary storytelling. And I support founders and small teams directly as a virtual assistant, handling inbox, scheduling, research, and the admin that quietly eats their week. Underneath all of it I use AI-assisted workflows to move faster without losing the human tone. If you have a message worth hearing, my job is to make sure it reaches the people who need it.

Kind Words

What Clients Say

Before Nefe stepped in, things were clumsy. I was missing deadlines and taking too long to reply to emails, and I could never decide what to deal with first. She shaped my days, filtered the inbox, told me what actually mattered that morning, and stayed on top of the follow ups. I stopped dropping things, and I got noticeably more done.

Isaiah Okhufu
Founder, Releazze

Running three businesses at once means everything competes for attention, and I was drowning in it. Nefe came in and handled the email enquiries, kept my deliveries on track, and made sure I never missed a meeting with my manufacturers overseas. She worked out what mattered most each day so I did not have to. She is my real life angel.
