Somto Claud Nwachukwu
Founder & Creative Head
Somto discovered his passion for producing events in his first year at Delta State University. Soon after, he was designing the student government events, and Claud Events was born.
After (years of underpaid student events and weddings) attaining his Diploma in Law and Linguistics degree, he worked for one of the largest event management companies in the country. The experience, in which he rose quickly from unpaid intern to Head of Operations, allowed him to hone in his skills and expand his vision. Seeing that scale of organization and performance completely transformed his conception of the possible, and his desire to push boundaries intensified. He sent in his resignation letter and reopened his shop. Events by Claud was reborn; but now, with eyes on the stars.
Despite the success of Events by Claud, Claud is still very hands-on in the creative sphere. Alongside managing client acquisition and correspondence, he is a part of the concept creation, and all the way down to the event execution. His passion for event management and design invigorates the team. When they succeed in tackling him down to rest, he enjoys watching animated cartoons, gardening, travelling, and almost too frequently sketching.
