You say persuasion and manipulation.
I say Branding and Marketing.

The difference is intent, structure, and long-term audience trust.

I AM A BRAND PSYCHO

I don’t chase trends or surface-level personas.

 

I study how people think, decide, trust, and commit. And I build brands that behave accordingly.

Obsession is useless without control. Mine has a method.

METHOD TO MY MADNESS

CONTEXT & SIGNAL INTELLIGENCE

Before your project begins, I'm already tuned in to design trends, search algorithms, consumer interests, generational segmentation, and brand psychology. This is where my brain lives all day, every day. 

AUDIENCE & BRAND PSYCHOLOGY

Central to my approach is a deep understanding of human psychology. I'll meticulously profile your company's audience, delving into their fears, desires, motivations, and quirks. This allows me to craft compelling messages, visuals, and a brand persona that resonates on a primal level, evoking emotional connection and driving engagement.

STRATEGIC DISRUPTION & DIFFERENTIATION

Armed with design trends, industry knowledge, a psychological profile of your audience, and 15 years in the trenches of brand and creative leadership, it's time to break the rules. In a sea of sameness, you must be willing to disrupt and be different.

BRAND SYSTEMS & GOVERNANCE

This might be where I say "trust the process." As the project explodes with ideas and seemingly unconnected thoughts, it's my job is to turn the chaos into a brand people can recognize, trust, and grow without me in the room.

HOW I ACTUALLY WORK WITH BRANDS

To put it simply, I step in as a fractional Brand Director when:

  • Founders are too close to the product

  • Teams are misaligned

  • Execution is happening without direction

My sole goal is not just to make things look good. There's real strategy and foundational structure behind every brand. I help turn brands into personalities that audiences want to engage with.
