Meet Damian

Most creative leaders lose sight of why they are in business. Regardless of where you are on the journey, everyone needs support at some point along the way.

I’ve learned this the hard way, after working in creative businesses my entire career. Whether I was serving as the director of big agencies and global brands, or mentoring creative entrepreneurs through their first profitable quarter, I found myself searching for practical guidance and a roadmap to help me move forward.

Now, I find myself in a lucky position.

For the first time, I’m sharing what I know with creative-minded entrepreneurs and adventurers. Why? So I can help them understand themselves better. Their path. How they can have the business they’ve always dreamed of.

I’d be thrilled to help you find your way.
