I once carried my mountain bike up the French Alps. I'm used to doing the heavy lifting, which is exactly what I do for the businesses I work with.

Over the last decade, I've worked everywhere from global brands like adidas to fast-moving startups like Ready Coffee, helping brands figure out who they are and how to communicate it in a way that feels clear, strategic, and memorable.

Somewhere in between designing shoes for an NBA star's baby and starting the first independent drive-thru coffee company in New York State, I noticed a pattern: a lot of business owners have brilliant products and services, but don't know how to reach the right people. Running a business already requires people to wear a hundred different hats, and marketing often becomes the thing that gets pushed to the bottom of the list.

So I started EmJ Creative. I work with businesses to clarify their message, build confidence in how they show up, and create marketing that finally does the work justice.

You know your business. I’ll help the right people know it too.
