Camille Idedevbo hails from the Washington, D.C. metro area just miles away from the nation’s capital. As a native of Prince George’s County, Maryland, Camille carries with her an east coast flare and a curiosity about the historical, political and social landscapes in which she finds herself. She recognizes that each of these factors shape the stories of the people in those local contexts. Motivated by a commitment to building thriving communities, Camille’s career trajectory has followed an unorthodox path that has led her to work with businesses, corporations, organizations, and grass-roots organizers on organizational development, policy analyses, philanthropic efforts, strategic partnerships and most recently innovation strategy and experiential design. 

After securing hundreds of thousands of dollars in financial and in-kind investment, initiating dozens of partnerships and new initiatives, leading citywide strategic planning and visioning processes, Camille has positioned herself as an interdisciplinary leader. 

These unique career experiences have led her to develop a personal and professional framework that explores the power of design for social good in three major categories. As a skilled strategist, Camille assesses organizations’ culture, network, and internal systems, to determine its capacity for innovation and designs equity-centered strategies for impact. She curates well-designed experiences for target communities that amplify their cultural assets. Most importantly, Camille uses storytelling to advance brand campaigns, deliver compelling keynotes and remind individuals of the importance of centering joy and healing as a pathway to collective liberation.
