Me.
Me.
How it all started
Most people who end up working with me arrive with the same problem. They know what they built, but they struggle to make others see it the way they do.
How this all started….
I'm Circassian.
Since I was a kid, I had this instinct for what looks beautiful and what doesn't, long before I had words for it.
I became a pharmacist. None of that was a plan. It just kept happening, one coincidence at a time.
I have lived in several countries and worked in three languages. That taught me to read a room before I speak, and to find what travels across cultures and what doesn't.
I spent seventeen years inside this industry. I sat in the rooms where decisions actually get made. What gets budgeted and what gets shelved.
I've built startups from scratch and watched others fall apart for reasons that had nothing to do with the product. I've sat across the table in manufacturing negotiations and licensing deals.
That's what most people in my position never see. And that's why they get brand strategy wrong.
They think it's about aesthetics. It's not. It's about people. Story. Feeling. And business.
It's the ability to look at what you do, find what's essential, and shape it into something other people can feel. If the strategy doesn't understand how the business actually works, the brand is just decoration.
As a creative director, I'm the one who makes it real. The identity, the packaging, the materials, the website. This is where the pharmacist, the strategist, and the creative instinct finally sit in the same room. And that's where the work gets interesting.
Most of my clients became close friends. I've connected founders with the right labs, the right partners, the right suppliers. I think that happens when you stop trying to close the deal and start trying to solve the problem. I put myself in their shoes. That changes everything.
Whether you're a founder building from scratch, a brand that's selling but not growing, or a product that should be selling but isn't, I help you find the core of your story and turn it into revenue.
