About this gig

Your work already has a voice. Your brand should have one too.

Most artists and small brands get a logo before they know what they stand for. I work the other way around.

I build the thinking layer first: what your project is about, who it speaks to, what makes it different, and how that should look and feel. Then I turn it into a written guide your designers, photographers and collaborators can actually follow.

What you get:

A brand concept and positioning statement. Your audience and brand personality defined. A narrative you can reuse in bios, press kits and pitches. Visual direction with a moodboard, color palette and typography guidelines.

How I work:

I ask questions before I make claims. I look at your work, research your field, and look at where you sit among the people working around you. My background is philosophy, so I'm trained to take an idea apart and find what's actually holding it together.

Good fit if: you're an independent artist, musician or small creative brand with a real idea that hasn't been put into words yet.

Not a fit if: you need finished logo files or graphic production. I define the direction, not the artwork.

I'm a brand strategist focused on concept, positioning and creative direction. This is the thinking that happens before design. I work with founders, artists and small creative businesses on what the brand stands for, who it's for, and how it should look and sound. You get a written brand concept, positioning, and a visual direction document with moodboards. I'm completing an M.A. in Philosophy, which is why I start with research and questions instead of templates. Previous work spans music, art and independent brands. Send me your project and I'll tell you honestly if I'm the right fit.
