WHAT I DO

I.
Creative Direction

I help define the visual and conceptual throughlines that guide a brand’s expression — aligning aesthetics, narrative, and intention so creative decisions feel cohesive, purposeful, and grounded in strategy rather than trend.

II.
Strategy

I translate ambiguity into clear direction, connecting business goals, audience insight, and brand values into strategies that are practical, adaptable, and designed to scale as the work evolves.

[More..]






III.
Copywriting

I write clear, human language that sounds like a real person — shaping voice, messaging, and narrative systems that build trust, communicate value, and hold up across channels and moments.

[More..]





IV.
Content Creation

I develop content frameworks that balance storytelling and utility, creating work that feels intentional, repeatable, and culturally aware — built to engage without chasing attention for its own sake.

[More..]






V.
Community Building

I treat community as a relationship, not a metric — designing communication, tone, and interaction that invite dialogue, build trust, and support long-term connection between people and brands.

[More..]






XI.
Partnerships

I approach partnerships as extensions of brand values, identifying collaborators and opportunities that feel aligned, additive, and mutually beneficial rather than transactional or surface-level.

Hi! I’m Natalie — a Brand Director  and Strategist based in NYC

I'm social, creative, and deeply interested in people and the ways we consciously evolve culture — which is how I ended up spending a decade helping mission-driven consumer brands figure out who they are and how to say it. 

I work best directly with founders, distilling their vision for change into stories that stir, stick, and spread. That's looked like social strategy, print magazines, community building, events, and everything in between. Whatever medium is most alive right now, that's where I want to be.

Let’s work together

I’m currently open to director-level roles, particularly in wellness, sustainability, food, women's health, media, and lifestyle. I'm also available for select consulting engagements with founders who need clarity or refinement as they scale.

Have something else? I’d love to chat.
