What I do

I work with Founders, CEOs and Marketing Directors of businesses of all sizes in many industries. I particularly focus on founder-led consumer startups and scale-ups with between £500k and £20m in revenue.

Projects range from short, self-contained projects to respond to immediate opportunities, to immersive, weeks-long strategy projects that evaluate an entire business. Everything I do, though, involves three stages: immersion, exploration, and the delivery of a tangible, actionable solution to a problem.
