[WHERE WE FOCUS]

What I do.

01

Brand Strategy

The foundation everything else is built on. Positioning, the name, the copy, the packaging, and the decision about who this is actually for.

02

Creative Direction

Taking that foundation and deciding what it looks and feels like. Imagery, color, type, texture, and tone of voice.

03

Social Media

I make content and I critique my own work the way I critique everyone else's, which means I can tell you why a post earned the scroll or lost it in the first two seconds. That is the useful half. The other half is distribution: which formats carry a brand, what cadence holds up over months, and how a strategy on paper becomes something an audience actually meets every day.

04

Meta Ads

I write briefs for ads and in some cases fully manage the Meta account.

05

Brand Deals

I've designed my content to be partnership friendly as it is focused on products & brands. I promote brands and products I believe in, in a way that feels natural to my audience.
