Hey! I'm Vanessa.

Brand Strategist | Educator | Tech Founder

I’m the first Black woman and first woman in America to create SaaS tools for brand strategy work—AI Brand Strategy, AI Personas, and AI Brand Voice Guidelines—tech that rival offerings on the market. 

Call it my special interest, call it my calling, or call it aligned with my birth chart. At the end of the day, I saw a gap in the market and filled it with Messaging Oracle™.

As someone who has always been into STEAM, AI prompt engineering and programming for the platform was right up my alley. But I paired that tech savvy with over 20 years in integrated marketing communications. My background includes brand strategy and qualitative research for Fortune 500 companies, raising over $40 million in nonprofit fundraising, and helping to launch the first MWBE Accelerator in NYC.

My academic rigor is just as deep. After graduating from Tufts University with a bachelor's in political science and summa cum laude from West Virginia University with a master's in integrated marketing communications, I was personally invited by the Dean to teach 'Brand Equity Management' and 'Market Research & Analytics' for West Virginia University's Reed School of Media graduate program.

And since I’ve been privy to a lot, I encoded decades of strategic expertise and insider information into a Sequential Intelligence Framework that does in minutes what used to take months. Graduate-level methodologies. Psychographic depth. Archetypal modeling. Cultural intelligence. All of it automated, without sacrificing the rigor that makes strategy work, producing an unmatched caliber of brand strategy documents with the assistance of AI.

Because here’s what I know. We all deserve a foundation to build a legacy and the same strategic sophistication that Fortune 500 brands get. 70+ sections of brand strategy delivered in minutes. Audience personas so granular that they guide every decision. Messaging frameworks that don't just sound good; they convert. Outputs built to make you look irreplaceable.
