Creating content that feels human, intentional, and impossible to scroll past.

A Canadian-Tamil UGC creator, digital storyteller, and designer blending marketing psychology, visual strategy, and real-life storytelling for wellness, lifestyle, health, fitness, travel, and tech brands.

Based in Essex + London, U.K and Toronto, Canada.

I’m more than a creator…

With a background in marketing, UX, and graphic communications, I bring a strategic lens to every piece of content I create.

Over the last 10+ years, I’ve helped brands and organisations build stronger digital experiences through storytelling, design, content strategy, and community-driven marketing.

Now, I partner with brands to create UGC that feels authentic, visually intentional, and aligned with how people actually engage online.

When strategy says hello to storytelling

Short-form videos and visuals designed to feel natural, relatable, and engaging.

Content grounded in audience psychology, digital behaviour, and conversion-focused storytelling.

Thoughtful visuals and messaging designed to feel cohesive, elevated, and authentic to your audience.

Redefining
success
creatively.

In 2024, I made the decision to leave my full-time career in Canada and move to the UK to build a slower, more intentional life — one rooted in creativity, wellbeing, freedom, and meaningful work. That shift completely changed how I think about success, and it’s deeply influenced the kind of content I create today: grounded, human, aesthetically intentional, and emotionally connected.

Now, I partner with brands across wellness, health, fitness, lifestyle, travel, and tech to create content that feels authentic while still being strategically aligned with business goals.

My approach combines:

  • Marketing strategy

  • UX & consumer psychology

  • Visual storytelling

  • Brand design thinking

  • Community-driven content

Industries

Wellness • Health • Fitness • Lifestyle • Travel
Tech • Community • Hospitality

What I Create

  • UGC Videos

  • TikTok/Reels

  • Product storytelling

  • Founder-led content

  • Lifestyle photography

  • Brand visuals

  • Educational/social-first content

Available for both one-off campaigns and ongoing partnerships.

@nancilynselva As we enter the last month of 2024, I reflect on how this year gave me everything I didn't know I needed. Through growth, getting out of my comfort zone and embracing the unknown, I learned about my purpose in a different perspective ✨ "There's nothing to feel guilty about for being idle. It's not reckless. It's an investment. There is nourishment in pursuits that have no purpose — that is their purpose. Getting to know yourself is the luxury of the success you've had. Finding fulfillment and joy in the pursuit of higher things, you've earned it. It's there for you, take it."

@nancilynselva Moving from 🇨🇦 to 🇬🇧 without a traditional 9-5 job lined up was definitely a risky move but since I had the means and privilege to do so, I decided that it was a risk I was willing to take. When you’ve been trapped into hustle culture for years, it’s easy to live life on autopilot, get burnout and not enjoy life for what it is. Being able to take 6 months “off” from the traditional 9-5 life really allowed me to unlearn toxic work habits, find peace in stillness and embrace nothingness. It sure wasn’t easy but was exactly what was needed to discover what I felt was next for me. Excited to share more of my work, experience as a freelance creative and travels ✨ #freelancer #torontodesigner #londondesigner #creativeentrepreneur #passionforcreating #london ♬
@nancilynselva This Vlog has been sitting in my drafts, waiting to be edited, and I finally got to it and decided to share 🤗 The move from Toronto to London has had its fair share of ups and downs, but I do think that every experience has taught me more about myself and what I want out of life, so I’m here for it ✨ #moveabroad #traveltok #careerbreak #freelancer #livingabroad #ugccreator #torontotolondon #jobinterview ♬ Storytelling - Adriel
