I help businesses
find the idea
they’re built around.


Independent brand and creative strategy.



Neura




The Sovereign Stack.

In a market full of competing claims, I helped Neura uncover what made it different. While competitors relied on rented infrastructure, Neura owned its entire stack, from physical servers to its private network.

Through workshops, I helped align the leadership team around that advantage. The result was The Sovereign Stack, a brand positioning that claimed ground competitors couldn't.




Flip




Flip the way you
trade crypto.


DeFi trading was serious business. But Flip didn't have to be. In a sector where competitors focused on technical features, I helped carve out space for Flip to make DeFi fun, get noticed and give traders a reason to switch.

Through workshops, I explored different positioning territories before developing Flip the way you trade crypto, a brand platform that brought its gamified products to life with a playful attitude.



Tesco Mobile




Your child’s first phone.

Childhood is full of firsts. A first phone is a big one. For children, it means freedom. For parents, it's learning to let go.

I saw an opportunity to take Tesco Mobile's Family Network positioning beyond selling phones and give the brand a meaningful role in helping parents make that decision.

The result was Their First Phone, a campaign idea built around helping families navigate this milestone, even if the right advice was to wait.
