Description

Hi! My name is Rachael - nice to meet you. I live in Antwerp with my husband and two dogs, Saga and Rufus. I am an internationally experienced early childhood educator who took on the challenge of transitioning my skills out of the classroom and into the world of business and innovation in 2019.

My skills lie in design, brand stories, and communication. I am creative, collaborative, and optimistic.

I help brands achieve both long and short-term goals by aligning their design, communications, and story with their position in the market. I love growing awareness around impact-focused and female-founded companies in the early days of their brand development. By working 1:1 to fine-tune pitch decks, websites, reports, portfolios, marketing campaigns, and social media content, I am committed to capturing their one-of-a-kind identity and purpose.

Looking for someone fun to work with either in English or Dutch? I am looking forward to hearing from you :-)
