Main Character Collective NYC
Find Your People. Build Your Thing.
A private NYC collective for creators, career-switchers, and self-starters ready to turn ambition into real momentum — together.
Our Doers
This isn’t a club for talkers.
It’s for the ones actually doing the thing — launching, building, healing, designing, creating. Every member is on a mission, and no one’s doing it alone. These are just a few of the beautifully unfinished stories in motion.
Vera Sokolova
🌸 Theater designer → Floral innovator
An immigrant artist reimagining the flower business — blending stagecraft and sustainability to create unforgettable event experiences.
Steven Shikhel
🍽️ Biologist → Dinner
alchemist
A classically trained scientist crafting immersive food experiences that awaken the senses and shift how we relate to nourishment — part art, part experiment, all magic.
Dig Ferreira
🛡️ Graphic Designer → Radical creator
From Brazilian fashion to forging wearable art, Dig paints with his mouth and builds armors that are part couture, part mythology — every piece a story of resilience, rebirth, and radical imagination.
We Move Fast.
We Stay Human.
Here’s how we work:
AI keeps your goals clear and your focus sharp.
IRL connection gives you energy, perspective, and people who care if you show up.
That means faster progress. Smarter decisions. And a crew that makes it all feel possible.
✨ Set goals.
Get nudged. With AI.
📍Co-work IRL. Share breakthroughs. With Humans.
🤝 Celebrate, struggle,
and build. Together.
Inside The Collective
Snapshots from real moments — late-night breakthroughs, creative rituals, rooftop co-working, AI demos, celebration dinners, soul chats. This isn’t just a group. It’s your NYC launchpad
for becoming who you’re meant to be.
Ready to Build the Life You Actually Want?
If you’re done going it alone — and ready to co-create with ambitious, weird, wildly alive people in NYC — we’d love to meet you.
Let’s design your next chapter, together.
