I like to break things.
Since childhood, I’ve had a burning curiosity to figure out how things work. In my mind, the best way to do that was to take things apart. One day, as I stared at what used to be a radio turned into a pile of small electronic pieces, I learned a valuable lesson.
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
This is why I developed a love for branding. At its core, branding is really just a kit of parts. But when the right pieces are assembled in the right way, magic can happen. I’ve spent the last 12 years helping technology companies evolve their most important asset – their brand. During that time I led 6 brand refreshes driven by internal creative teams that were followed by a total of $10B in new revenue and acquisition valuation.
I finally feel vindicated for breaking that old radio.
