My being
Authentic
I know myself, which makes me better able to understand others (people, teams, clients, brands and the worlds that surround them)
Empathetic
This helps me communicate with compassion, warmth and effectiveness. Useful for writing and connecting with other human beings (collaborators and audience)
A real optimist
I’m a realist, but optimistic for the future – inspired by self-growth and a better tomorrow. On a mission to work with more companies that do good. B Corps, FTW ;)
Curious
Fascinated by social psychology, creative expression and how people think. This lends itself to planning, copywriting and brand strategy
And curiouser
Probably (definitely) a little bit odd. Wait, aren’t you?
Creative collaborator
I like to question and approach all projects differently, because I believe the best is always yet to come
