Hi, I'm Brianna Blacet, CEO of Powered by Stories.
I am a well-known storyteller in the emerging technology space, crafting compelling narratives that sales and marketing teams use to enchant prospects, create memorable brands, and close deals.
I've worked for some of Silicon Valley's biggest brands, including Cisco, VMware, and Splunk—as well as numerous startups—helping them transform traditional marketing messaging into stories that humans can consume without falling asleep. I've judged corporate storytelling competitions and delivered workshops at RSAC and other large conferences.
Stories are my jam. Technology is my bread and butter. Together, well, it's a whole lot of carbs, but it's mighty delicious.
