As an accomplished writer, Tenesee has authored numerous poems, poetry collections, and a screenplay for a Minnesota-based organization. He is also the author of Heat in Monrovia and Kou: The Girl from Nimba.

Through the company, he also serves as a talent strategist, helping promote and develop Liberian artists and entertainers worldwide. In addition, he shares his insights on social issues, culture, and current events through T-see Opinion, his Facebook commentary platform.
