I’m Trevion Adams, professionally known as Trejavu a spoken word poet, host, and creative entrepreneur dedicated to turning poetry into purpose and sustainability. I use storytelling and performance to create experiences that connect people, spark reflection, and build community. My work spans live poetry showcases, feature events, open mics, and collaborative platforms designed to elevate poets and give voices real stages. I believe poetry is more than expression it’s a transferable skill that can be branded, booked, and built into a business without losing authenticity. Beyond performing, I focus on the business side of artistry: marketing, promotion, audience engagement, and monetization strategies for poets and creatives. My mission is to help artists understand their value, show up professionally, and create opportunities that last.
