Duende Creative House is a Fresno-based strategic marketing and mentorship agency that specializes in brand development, asset creation, event marketing, and inclusive communications support. Our shop is built on strategy, artistry, and the belief that great storytelling has the power to change everything. We help artists, entrepreneurs, and social good enterprises promote their work so they can, in turn, better enrich their neighborhoods and communities. We also wok with our clients (partners) to help develop their own capabilities for telling stories in modern, ethical, and culturally competent ways. 

Co-founders Miguel Gastelum and Haley White have worked together creatively and professionally for over a decade: as co-founders of Fresno-based arts and advocacy collective, The Fools Collaborative; as leaders in the Save Tower Theatre Demonstration Committee; and as creative marketers for campaigns for United Way Fresno and Madera Counties, StageWorks Fresno, Marketing Plus, and other local community business organizations. When a company-wide layoff ended Haley’s time in her marketing director role at her most recent gig, she saw it as an opportunity. Nonprofits and small businesses are increasingly looking for nimble, values-driven marketing support. Haley knew she and Miguel could fill that gap in service by building something of their own.
