Let's Be Friends Marketing & Operations Lead

Tumpale Mwakasisi

Let’s Be Friends is a social club and event brand designed to make it easier (and more fun) for adults in Chicago to build meaningful connections.
At Let’s Be Friends, I work alongside the founder to lead our community-building efforts and ensure smooth internal operations. My role includes managing our Slack community, maintaining and updating our website, and overseeing our marketing strategy across digital platforms.
I also lead outreach for strategic partnerships and collaborations that align with our mission. Internally, I help design and refine our processes to support team efficiency and growth.
In addition, I regularly plan & host events that bring our community together, fostering meaningful connections through thoughtful programming and experiences.
