Osa Bartholomew

Osayamen Asemota-Bartholomew began The Gift Agency LLC (TGA) with a simple goal: to help clients communicate better. What started as a small consultancy has become a trusted partner for organizations across various industries. With over 15 years of experience, Osayamen has consistently aligned her leadership in marketing, operations, and program management with the strategic goals of her clients.

Before founding TGA, Osayamen played a pivotal role in shaping strategic marketing efforts at the Real Estate Executive Council (REEC), Project REAP, the New York City Bar Association, Roc-A-Fella Records/Def Jam, and has led partnerships with The Urban Land Institute, PREA Foundation, and Open Access. Her work in media, entertainment, and non-profits has been instrumental in managing global campaigns, creating lasting initiatives, and making a significant difference in the community. Her contributions have earned her recognition as a 2018 Rising Star and Leading Lady in Real Estate by Real Estate Weekly, a 2019 Top Woman in CRE by the Real Estate Marketing Awards, and a 2021 honoree of Crain's Magazine Notable Black Leaders and Executives. She serves on Your Queens, Inc.'s board, District 27 Council District's Jamaica Areawide Rezoning (JAR) Steering Committee, and the Diversity & Inclusion advisory boards for industry publications Bisnow Media and Commercial Observer.

As a John C. Maxwell-certified life Coach, Osayamen founded Coaching by Osa, a TGA division that developed The 5 Commitments to a Better You™, an empowerment coaching event that helps participants transform their mindset and take charge of key life pillars such as purpose, money habits, relationships, health, and self. This one-day workshop provides a jumpstart to achieving goals.

A Brooklyn native with Nigerian and Dominican roots, Osayamen's diverse journey influences her professional path. She holds a dual Bachelor of Science in English- Communications from Lincoln and Temple University and a Master of Arts in Communications Arts & Marketing Management from NYIT. Today, she leads TGA in delivering tailored, results-driven solutions that foster inclusive environments and elevate brands.

Osayamen is available to speak and moderate engagements nationwide. She focuses on cultivating partnerships and leveraging DEI for economic empowerment. Through her signature program, The 5 Commitments to a Better You™, she empowers women leaders and mothers to thrive in their careers and family lives and inspires personal and professional growth, motivating audiences to reach their highest potential.
