Selected work

A career spent moving between ideas and execution.

Some projects started with a brief. Others started with a problem I couldn't ignore. The common thread is turning insight into something people can see, use, join or act on.

What I do

Different titles.
One way of thinking.

I am comfortable owning a strategy, getting into the tools, leading a team, writing the copy, building the journey or figuring out why the thing isn't working.

01

Creative Strategy

Find the human story, the sharp angle and the idea worth building.

Find the constraint, test the hypothesis and build what works.

05

Marketing Operations

Make the work easier to track, coordinate and scale.

06

Marketing Leadership

Turn scattered activity into a team that can actually execute.

How I work

Things I have built.

I build structures that make good work easier to repeat: the message, the journey, the hand-off, the dashboard, the campaign rhythm and the space for a team to do its best work.

About Yvonne Nezianya

I'm a marketer who somehow ended up loving the space between creativity and systems.

I began my career on the product side, moved into content and marketing, spent several years agency-side, and then moved in-house to build growth for an investment firm.

That path means I can look at a problem from more than one angle. I can think about the audience, the story, the funnel, the product, the team and what needs to happen next.
