Meet the founder

I spent nearly a decade in marketing and communications for a global tech consultancy. It was a decade of learning the discipline it takes to keep a large brand moving. But when a corporate layoff gave me the chance to pause, I realized I wanted something different. I wanted to do work that felt more meaningful and closer to home.

I chose to move away from the corporate layers and focus on Alexandria. Seventeen Forty Nine was born from that choice. I started this agency to bring the thoughtful brand building I practiced in the tech world to the founders and leaders who care about their craft as much as I do.

Today, I focus on social media because it is the most direct way for a brand to communicate with their audience. I love building content systems and crafting ideas that help businesses stand out in a crowded, AI-driven world. Collaborating with passionate clients and seeing their businesses grow is the most rewarding part of this journey.
