Brand and Content Marketing

I started my career as a designer before becoming a journalist and media executive. As a marketer, I use this background to drive commercial growth by tying brand identity to audience behavior and market demand.

Brand to demand

As AI pushes us beyond traditional SEO toward AI summaries and zero-click attribution, brand is returning to the fore. It's how you show up and how you're remembered—by your ICP when they decide they need a solution, by journalists when they need an example for a story, and by your own employees when they execute on your mission.

Content brings it all to life. It establishes trust, surfaces your brand in AI searches, and balances your brand, buyer needs, and the nuances of channel and format.

I'll help you with all of it.
