Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I've been building brands independently since 2008, which means I've seen what works, what doesn't, and why. After years of working in Rotterdam and collaborating with clients across the UK and Europe, I'm now based in rural France, working remotely with the same level of strategic thinking and creative rigour I've always brought to the table. I give the same care and attention to a small local restaurant as I do to a national organisation. For me, good branding isn't about looking impressive. It's about being understood.

Argenton-sur-Creuse, France
I help brands find their voice, stand out, and build genuine connections with their audience.

I'm a brand strategist and designer with 17+ years of experience working across industries, business sizes, and time zones. From strategy to execution, I help businesses figure out who they are, what makes them matter, and how to express that clearly and consistently.

Whether you're a small independent business or an established organisation, my approach combines strategic thinking, creative instinct, and honest insight to shape brands with meaning and impact.

I work in English, French, and Dutch, an asset for brands operating across multiple markets or looking to grow their international presence.
