Creative Strategy
A Creative Strategist can be brought in at any phase of a project to–
deliver feedback * sharpen focus * clarify ideas and aims * evaluate conceptual content and framework * ensure progress and completion
Depending on the scope and nature of the project, I do any or all of the following–

idea-generation sessions * project organization and development strategies
progress sessions * editing treatments, statements, and documents
My clients come from a wide range of creative disciplines; they are–
visual artists * screenwriters * essayists * creative directors * photographers

Existential Strategy
What we do:
We listen. We refine and reframe dilemmas. We think through. We ask questions.
How it works:
In the initial consultation we determine an objective by asking, "what do you want to get out of life?" This question is revised to manage expectations, "what do you want to get out of our time together?" This question is then responded to in a sentence that begins, “A better understanding of…” ...others? ...yourself? ...human nature? ...the human condition?
After determining goals, counsel devises a rough “curriculum” based on client’s time commitment and goals. Alternatively, we can just talk.
What to expect: More questions than answers. Don’t worry, this is really the point.
