Khoollect’s hotlist of go-getting Instagrammers

At Khoollect, we’re fortunate enough to meet some very inspiring people in our travels, working across a wide range of disciplines. Through talking to these fascinating folk, we’ve found that creativity at work is not something limited to people occupying the arts or traditionally ‘creative’ industries. Instead, those that thrive in their areas of expertise are the ones who take a unique approach to any role they happen to call their ‘day job’. We’ve scoured Instagram for interesting go-getters, do-gooders, movers and shakers. Here’s who we found:
