Cecile de Blaby

Project Manager & Producer

NIKE - OLYMPICS’24

I’m Cecile… A proud dyslexic, Dutch national, and resident Londoner. Sports keep me sane, and creativity keeps me curious.

I am a versatile project manager and producer, passionate about delivering impactful projects that challenge the limits of possibility. Across a diverse range of mediums, I aim to create work that ignites conversation and inspires both local and global communities.

Kindness is my superpower, a virtue I infuse into every aspect of my life. I embrace the belief that no one is too senior to do a coffee run, nor is anyone too junior to hatch a game-changing idea.
