Where would I be without Souris? After all these years working together, I know there’s no one like her! It’s rare to find someone with the knowledge, passion, and perspective to negotiate artist deals. From her many years working with artists and brands, she knows all the right questions to ask when these big brands want to hire me. I’ve worked with other agents, and none of them fight for my best interests as Souris does; she always has my back from start to finish. Her professionalism is unrivaled, and I think we get rehired because of it. She is the model of an artist’s agent, and any artist would be grateful to have her services.

I have worked with Souris on various art-related projects over the years. For our most recent collaboration, Souris partnered AT&T with BEYOND THE STREETS, a 40k sq. ft art experience I curated. She helped produce an Artist Speaker Series with Mister Cartoon and DabsMyla. Her vast knowledge of art and her ability to produce live events is incomparable.

Souris Hong of Creative Cabal was an incredibly valuable member of Senator Bernie Sanders’s “The Art of a Political Revolution” production team. Not only did Souris bring decades of expertise to the table as well as her relationships, but she also brought a certain calm to the project. Souris helped keep us moving in the right direction. Souris’s sense of professionalism, invaluable artistic opinions, and love for the culture helped make this a series of exhibitions for the history books.

Souris Hong is a forward thinker. She created a blockbuster social media and digital marketing plan for Aerosmith’s LET ROCK RULE tour involving a collaboration between the band and acclaimed street artist RISK. She knows art, music, film, politics, branding — you name it. Creative Cabal makes ideas happen!
- Trudy Green, Manager, Aerosmith
Souris knows how to work hard. She took full ownership of her part in building MOCAtv and was a key part of the team. She is always positive and full of ideas, with a deep and broad network, and is equally comfortable in strategy, conception, and execution. Whether it was art, music, live events, fashion, film, or video games, she knew helpful people and was keen to collaborate. And more than that, she has one characteristic that I value: if Souris says she will do something, she will.
- John Toba, MOCAtv, Head of Production
Souris has been my brilliant and supportive friend for over 15 years. Her dynamic personality and ability to connect creative folks with consumers are impressive and inspiring.

I had the privilege of working with Souris when she served as Vice President, Interactive Media, for Entertainment Media Ventures. I have known Souris for many years as an innovator blending the best of tech, design, and storytelling. These are hard disciplines to mix effectively, but this combination of skills was highly sought after by our clients. Souris was masterful in building trust with clients, showing them new ways to engage their audiences, and marshaling a team of EMV and client members that worked highly effectively, delivering important results for our clients’ business building.
I have stayed in close touch with Souris through the years, marveling at the creative projects she has brought forth. Souris would be a spectacular addition to any organization looking for a creative collaborator with impressive leadership skills.
