About

Born in the NJ suburbs, at 10 years old we moved 3,200 miles to the most northern town on the UK mainland... 4 hours train from the nearest cinema.

 

It was an absolute culture shock!

​

However, it was the most informative experience of my life, and it's ultimately the foundation of all my work:

Understanding cultures and what makes people passionate.

What I do

I help get people excited about brands. â€‹For me, passion and interest stems from culture.

 

Who is your brand? Who is your audience? & how do you want them to feel?

 

Once you answer these questions, we can bridge that gap; giving your brand personality and guiding your audience's feelings.
