Beschreibung

I'm a brand and creative strategist with 10+ years of experience in branding and creative advertising, since 2020 specialising in supporting tech startups from Silicon Valley and across the globe. With a background in copywriting and concepting, my approach to strategy is driven by creativity and openness to new possibilities and methods. I like to think of myself as a combination of common sense and uncommon thinking.

I've worked for clients across various industry sectors, including AI, biotech, SaaS, Web3, sportswear, travel, finance, and FMCG. I’ve worked with brands such as Under Armour, Aer Lingus and the Scottish Government.
