Led by Dallas sustainability advocate Amy King, founder of Nested Strategies for independents, creatives, entrepreneurs, business leaders, and anyone who wants to solidify their personal brand.

Do you…

• Have diverse strengths and work experience and need to better articulate the themes and threads throughout your career?

• Need to build a personal brand as you start your career, or reframe it for a new career?

• Want to raise your profile or image as a business thought leader, but haven’t found the time? 

We’re ready to help you develop, or refocus your personal brand language, purpose, and direction? 

Your personal brand is more than a clever elevator pitch –  it’s the statement you make through what you do and how you live your life.
