ABOUT
Sagittarius A* is an independent strategy studio operating at the intersection of culture, commerce, and creativity. I advance a hybrid approach to building companies and brands, applying cultural intelligence to unlock authentic resonance and measurable commercial growth. I believe that truly transformative opportunities require the ability to not just interpret culture, but to actively create it. I operate as a consulting firm, cultural studio, and innovation lab. These three pillars of my practice work together to strategize, produce, and scale cultural movements at all levels of impact.
CONSULTING.
My consulting practice partners with Fortune 500 companies as well as niche brands and cultural icons to architect full-stack service and brand systems that deliver measurable impact. I integrate strategic, brand, and management consulting with hands-on cultural curation and creative direction — bridging strategic ambition and cultural reality.
CULTURAL STUDIO.
As a cultural studio, I design internationally recognized experiences, cultural projects, and product collections that shape movements. Unlike traditional consulting firms that advise on culture, my practice actively creates and curates it at scale.
INNOVATION LAB.
Functioning as an innovation lab, I design and architect next-generation technologies and digital experiences. I hold 29 approved software patents in eCommerce, digital storytelling, and emerging technologies — allowing me to advise clients from a position of technical depth.
