As a certified specialist in brand strategy with international business relations, and diversity work background, I\u2019ve built and managed corporate brand identities for over fifteen years.<\/p>

A three-time immigrant I was born in Uganda, but quickly thereafter moved to Stockholm where I lived for 37 years\u2014and my affinity for minimalism began. I was the head of PR at MNO International for six years\u2014working with brands like Under Armour<\/strong><\/a>, Victoria Beckham<\/a><\/strong>, and Ted Baker<\/a><\/strong>, and covering events with guest lists including P Diddy and The Black Eyed Peas.<\/p>

In 2013, I moved to San Diego with my six-week-old daughter and teenage son. We didn\u2019t know a soul in the States\u2014so as you can imagine, that time was incredibly difficult. But alongside my loneliness grew a deep sense of knowing and clarity that in order for me to be truly satisfied, I needed to keep being creative. I founded Creative Swedes in 2016 and subsequently landed the role of CEO for ImseVimse<\/a><\/strong>, where I increased their revenue by 400% during my time there.<\/p>

Because I\u2019ve experienced multiple evolutions throughout my own career, I have a distinct and creative imagination for redefinition. And because I\u2019ve learned the sound of my own voice, I\u2019ll help you listen for what\u2019s emerging in you and bring your vision to reality.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
