The problem
Most decks fail before anyone reads them. The content is usually fine. Someone had two days and a template from 2016, and every bullet felt important. By the time it reaches the room, nobody remembers the point.



What I do
Big meeting. Big audience. Big ideas.
I create polished presentations for leadership meetings, corporate communications, strategy sessions and high-stakes moments where the deck needs to do some serious work.
Make the idea easier to buy.
I turn products, services and propositions into persuasive presentations that give sales teams and business development teams a better story to tell.
Make the thinking impossible to miss.
Campaigns, strategies, creative concepts, research, plans and recommendations—structured and designed so the thinking doesn't get buried.
Don't make people stare at bullet points for 45 minutes.
I create presentations designed for the room, the speaker and the audience—not just the screen.
One great deck is good.
A system your whole team can use is better.
I can create PowerPoint templates, master slides, layouts, charts and diagrams.


Better thinking. Better storytelling. Better design.
I spent more than two decades in advertising and creative leadership, working with some of the world'sbiggest brands.
That means I don't approach a presentation as a collection of slides.
I look at the story.
Not just prettier slides.

Let's fix the deck.
Short-handed? I can build the deck while your team works on the content.
