I help people, organizations, and brands communicate with clarity, creativity, and purpose through speaking, strategy, design, storytelling, and visual art.
Gilbert "gilrlla" Acevedo III
MORE THAN A BRAND.
FAITH-ROOTED. STREET-SHAPED. BUILDER-MINDED.
I’m a Sacramento-based artist, speaker, creative strategist, and founder passionate about building things that create impact — from ideas and organizations to artwork, messages, events, and movements.
My work lives at the intersection of creativity, leadership, faith, culture, community, and storytelling.
Over the years, I’ve worked with churches, nonprofits, youth organizations, schools, brands, artists, and justice-involved youth through speaking, mentorship, creative direction, design, media, and community-based initiatives.
Whether I’m speaking on a stage, designing apparel, creating artwork, mentoring youth, building resources, or helping organizations communicate more clearly — the goal stays the same:
To create things that move people forward.
