xVP Maven, Early Stage Marketing Leader

A marketing leader' must give the team what they need to understand the market, the customer and the bigger why.
Now we have a new kind of team member: AI.
AI is capable of limitless execution work but cannot feel what your customer does. It cannot infer the experience of a busy day in a tired body, with the radio on and a kid in the back seat. It does not intuitively understand the motivations and hesitations that come from an inner world of hopes and fears.
I've built a method to close that gap and give AI what it needs to execute marketing well. It is pulled from a multi-disciplinary career in early-stage marketing leadership, as well as my life-long need to understand human behavior as an neurodiverse individual.
It uses frameworks from brand strategy and behavioral psychology to UX. Frameworks that exist to make sense of and synthesize human complexity. Tested and refined for a new application: AI context engineering for marketing.
It delivers a structured account of your customer's lived temporal and emotional experience, in every dimension that is actionable for marketing decisions.
And once done, it's impact scales in lockstep with your AI.
