Hi, I'm Ben!
Owner and Lead Brand Strategist, Sharp Creative
​​​
​
My journey in the advertising and design industry began in 1999, where I cut my teeth as a designer and Creative Director at an advertising agency. After a decade of honing my craft, it became clear that startups and growing businesses could greatly benefit from robust brand strategy, just like the big players. This insight led me to found Sharp Creative in 2010.
