It's tough out there.

Dozens, even hundreds, of people and brands fight for the same jobs and customers.

Every step of the journey, from building awareness, generating engagement and sustaining success is highly contested. 

Algorithms, AI screeners, and competition demand messaging that proves competence and forges an emotional bond.

FAQs

What makes your approach to branding different from other consultants?

I combine 40 years of branding expertise and ten years of teaching experience at a top-ranked university with a psychologically oriented process that helps uncover your true values, purpose, and personality. With that enhanced self-understanding, I’ll help you create a singular, emotionally driven reason to choose you that will form the foundation for all communications, on and off-line.

Why do you think that branding is like psychotherapy?

Because it’s about uncovering the essence of who you are (or what your business is), not just creating a tagline or logo. We dig deep to reveal insights that will drive emotional connections, strong relationships and lasting differentiation for your target.

What can I expect from your process?

A guided, step-by-step experience that results in clarity, confidence, and a detailed brand positioning you can apply immediately in resumes, websites, pitches, and marketing campaigns.

How long does the branding process take?

One-on-one personal branding engagements are completed in about four weeks. Small business branding projects may take 4–6 weeks depending on scope and whether consumer research is included. Online workshops/courses are at your own pace.
