About Vanja

Most brand and communications consultants will tell you what you want to hear. I tell you what's actually not working — and then we fix it.

I'm fast at identifying problems and even faster at solving them. I get obsessed with briefs I believe in. I don't waste your time on things that don't move the needle. And I bring 18+ years of genuine cross-sector experience — across technology, culture, lifestyle, luxury and institutional clients — which means I connect dots that specialists miss.

I work at the strategic advisory level. Brand positioning, go-to-market communications, organisational narrative, market entry, brand transformation. The kind of work that happens before the brief gets written — and that determines whether everything that follows actually lands.

What you get when we work together:
— A sharp, honest diagnosis of what's not working and why
— Strategy that is practical and built to be executed, not filed away
— Senior thinking without agency overhead or junior handoff
— A point of view. Because that's what makes decisions happen.

I take on a focused number of engagements at a time — so when I'm on your project, I'm actually on your project. Typical engagements run 4–12 weeks. Remote-first, available across Europe and globally, in-person in Berlin.
