I HELP BRANDS AND PEOPLE FEEL MORE HUMAN.

the postcard.

I’m Katie — a brand and community strategist, writer, and host of a video series exploring how we stay human in a digital-first world.

I work with founders and teams building brands and communities people actually feel part of — not just marketed to.

I’ve spent 10+ years inside award-winning agencies in London and New York, and working directly with founders in Europe’s largest tech and entrepreneurial ecosystem.

I’ve partnered with Web Summit, NBC, Adweek and London Tech Week — interviewing leaders and change-makers shaping what’s next.

Now, I’m building a platform across writing, conversations and live experiences about how we build work, culture and connection that actually means something.

The letter

We’re living in an era of infinite output and diminishing intimacy.

Everything is optimised for scale — very little is designed for depth.

I’ve spent the last decade inside the machinery of modern growth: award-winning agencies, startup ecosystems, media platforms. I understand how brands are built.

I’m more interested in how they’re felt.

I help founders and teams build brands and communities that people don’t just recognise — but return to.

Alongside client work, I write and host conversations with people thinking deeply about creativity, intimacy, AND HUMAN CONNECTION.

I’m not here to help you be louder.

I’m here to help you be more resonant.

If you’re building something and want it to feel alive — I’d love to hear about it.
