Complicating is easy.
Simplifying is hard.

I help founders turn “it’s hard to explain” into positioning that clicks.

When your value is obvious, messaging sticks
— with investors, customers, and your own team.

Let's chat

Hi, I’m S-J.

I was a founder for a decade — and took a company from a two-person startup to IPO.

Now, I help founders and CEOs get clear on what they do, why they’re the best at it, and how to stand out.

I work from strategy through to execution, so your story lands in the market and inside your business.

I'm here as a trusted strategist and advisor — to offer the support I wish I'd had during tough moments of scaling.
MORE ABOUT ME

Simplicity is a strategy, not a shortcut.

As your business grows, so does the story you need to tell. New features, new markets, new stakeholders — and slowly, complexity creeps in.
Suddenly, what used to feel clear is hard to explain. That’s Complexity Creep — and it’s one of the biggest reasons great companies get stuck.
I help you connect the dots across your expanding business, then craft a story that’s simple, memorable, and easy to rally around.
Step 1

Product Positioning

The start point is clarifying why you're different and better than the alternatives. It's the way to rebuild strong foundations.    

Step 2

Core Messaging

Then I'll create messaging that demonstrates your value to your ideal customers and bring your brand story to life on your website.

Step 3

GTM Strategy

The final step is embedding your new positioning and messaging into your roadmap and sales & marketing funnel.

Happy clients

I love to work with leaders who are committed to making a real impact; those who aren’t just looking to succeed but are committed to transforming their industries and leaving a lasting mark on the world.

I’ve worked with leadership teams funded by Airtree, Alberts Impact Ventures, SEEK and other top VCs.
