Brand Strategist shaping audience-first brand identity, positioning, and campaigns for growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Brand Strategist with a cross-disciplinary background spanning luxury hospitality, international consumer experience, and digital brand building. I sharpen instinct for how audiences feel a brand before they can articulate it.
I build brand identity, brand positioning, brand voice, and tone of voice—then translate it into creative briefs and go-to-market strategy. I’ve grown brand reach 40%, boosted engagement 35%, and driven 50%+ conversion lift through audience-first brand storytelling.
In my recent role, I developed brand strategy from scratch across all digital touchpoints, directed creative strategy for 15+ monthly assets, and A/B tested creative direction to lift engagement ~35%. I also led a 4-person team delivering go-to-market collateral for 6+ events with zero missed deadlines.
My work is grounded in consumer insight: from building cross-cultural behavior understanding across 8+ nationalities during a luxury hotel internship to crafting campaign strategy for 300+ attendee lifestyle events. I bring that same brand consistency thinking into brand audits, guidelines, and end-to-end experiences.
