Strategy & Storytelling
Hi/Hallo/Bonjour
Maryke here. I'm a creative strategist and digital marketing consultant with insatiable curiosity.
I love telling stories – of brands, of people, of culture and the world – in every shape and form.
On any given day you will find me creating content that captivates and strategies that are as sticky as they are strong.
I love collecting art (and wine)
Isn't that why we travel - to create stories, drink wine and bring back art? My most recent addition? A watercolour poster from the Southern coast of Sweden - the tale of getting lost in the Archipelago.
I like refurbishing aka re-making
There is nothing so rewarding than seeing something old become new again, whether clothes, furniture, art or brands
I'm obsessed with learning
Having three degrees and a whole bag of certifications is the result of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge.
As adaptable as a box of Lego
One of my greatest strengths is my adaptability, whether it's a new town, a foreign language or making Plan B up on the spot, it's thrilling to know the possibilities are endless.
I have a secret love affair with creative writing
From my Barbie - a poet, to capturing the intricate details of teenage life as the editor of the school paper to finding the needle in the haystack of consumer behaviour research
