Client PartnerThe Heart Monitors Jan 2024 - PresentI've recently joined The Heart Monitors, a new strategy, insights and activations consultancy focused on The Feelings Behind the Facts. In my new role as Client Partner, I’m working with marketing pioneers Jon Bond and Robin Lemberg to engage with brands and agencies in the interest of monitoring consumer sentiment and providing insights and direction that leverage the idea that facts don’t drive action, but feelings do. The Heart Monitors is a new type of strategy consultancy that exposes the feelings behind the facts that offer deep insights and drive behavior change. Made up of passionate leaders from the worlds of marketing, finance, non-profits, research and social science, we bring a proprietary research tech stack, custom communities, daring questions, quick and timely reads and with products and services such as the “F Factor” and the “Gen Z Heart Tracker”, we empower non-profits, brands and their partners with powerful audience insights around messages, campaigns, topical and polarizing issues in order to craft a story that resonates, drives behavior and influences change. I’m looking forward to reaching out to my friends and former colleagues to discuss how we might be able to work together. To learn more about us, visit theheartmonitors.com -
