for the moment the company outgrows its story

Our clients are usually well into something good. A new stage, a new market, a new chapter. The work is about making sure the brand reflects where they actually are. We work with the people making decisions, stay close through the whole engagement, and bring strategy and creative together instead of separating them.

proud dad

I didn't start in brand. I started as a photojournalist, uncovering stories about people and the worlds they move through.

That instinct carried into brand work, and over fifteen years I've been on both sides of it: in-house at Amazon Music, Lyft, Picsart, and Intel, and alongside dozens of tech companies as a creative and strategic partner.

Dawn is how I do that now. I get teams aligned on what the company has become, find where the story stopped fitting, and direct the creative that carries it. I lead the strategy and the craft, and pull in collaborators as needed.

The work has traveled far, from startups to global brands, from galleries to film festivals. I try not to overthink that part.

how we work
‍

see it clearly

You already know something's off. We help you name it. The gap between what your company has become and how the market sees it isn't always obvious from the inside. That's where we start.

say it sharply

We find the honest, human thing underneath the company. Not just what makes you different, what makes you matter. Sharp enough to rally a team. Simple enough to survive contact with the real world.

make it unmistakable

Then the work. Brand, messaging, campaigns, launches, whatever the moment calls for. Built so your team can carry it forward, not just admire it.

the right team for every project

Dawn is lean by design. For each project, we bring in the right collaborators - people we trust and have worked with before. You get senior thinking and hands-on support, without the extra layers.
