About

I’m Angelo, a New York-based strategist, drawn to the tension between what brands want to say and what people actually care about.

Time spent living and working abroad has shaped how I approach strategy: looking beyond surface level observations to understand the beliefs, tensions, and aspirations that drive people’s decisions.

The best ideas don’t just communicate benefits. They translate them into meaning. That’s where brands stop talking at people and start creating intimacy with them.
