Brand, Identity & Design
I design positioning, identity and expression for organisations ready to unlock the true potential of their brand.
The brand ecosystem.
Whether launching, growing, pivoting or reinventing, I help organisations connect the dots between business and brand, purpose and positioning, culture and communication.
I see brand as an ecosystem—that guides and inspires—creatively and strategically. And I help leaders and teams understand how their brand can play an active role in delivering short and long-term value.
Mission
Values
I mix strategic thinking with creative intelligence across the three elements of brand, either individually or as part of a combined strategic plan; joining the dots between business and brand, purpose and positioning, culture and communication.

Ready to
connect?
Your brand isn’t just a logo or a tagline—it’s the ecosystem that connects every part of your business.
A strong brand supports your strategic objectives, whether that’s driving profit, boosting morale, or attracting talent. It gives you the foundation to grow and achieve results that matter.
About.
I’m an independent brand designer & consultant with over 20 years experience across the design and creative sector.
I’ve worked with 100+ brands and businesses in all shapes and sizes and from all kinds of sectors.
The process is usually more fruitful when working directly with leadership teams or senior decision-makers.
Wherever you are in your brand journey, I’m here to guide the process, ensuring you fully understand what brand really is, why it’s important, what your options are moving forward and how much you might want to invest.

Better by design.
I’ve made it my business to help founders and leaders understand, utilise and integrate design as a toolkit that delivers cultural and commercial value and impact.
In addition to my brand work, I now work with a limited number of businesses to guide, train and support with design direction, thinking, culture and leadership.
