I've spent 18 years building brands and decks. Two lanes I work in most: Presentations & Pitch decks for founders, finance teams, and enterprises who need to convince someone who matters. Brand strategy and identity for businesses that are scaling, repositioning, or adding a new service line; and I am an ex marketer who led multiple brand and marketing campaigns for organisations in the MENA regions, including handling regional campaigns for global studios including MGM, Disney, Warner, Sony, Fox, and A24. Same skill across both worlds: take a messy brief, turn it into a clear story on a page or a slide. What I take on: 1. Pitch and brand decks. Investor decks, sales decks, capability decks, corporate profiles. Strategy first, design second. 2. Brand strategy and identity. Positioning, naming, brand architecture, visual identity, guidelines. Mostly for B2B and professional services firms outgrowing their original brand. 3. B2B website and messaging. Homepage rewrites, positioning copy, landing pages. A note on Upwork. I joined the platform in May 2026, so my Upwork track record is short. The 18 years behind it isn't. If you want to see the deeper portfolio, ask and I'll send it. Send me your brief and what you're trying to achieve. If it's a fit, you'll know in the first reply.
