Creative direction and brand strategy for beauty brands.
Hi, I’m Ryesha!
I specialize in brand & creative direction in the beauty industry, and help businesses focus on what makes them authentic, and how to express that visually across every customer touchpoint.
I'm fascinated by the brands people can't stop talking about. I spend my free time analyzing product launches and influencer campaigns, studying packaging, building moodboards, and keeping a close eye on what's capturing attention across beauty, fashion, and social media.
Research is my creative process. Whether I'm browsing Sephora shelves, saving Pinterest inspiration, or following emerging indie brands, I'm constantly asking why certain brands resonate and others don't.
That curiosity helps me uncover patterns in aesthetics, storytelling, and consumer behavior that businesses can use to strengthen their own brand.
I work with founders and marketing teams to clarify their positioning, identify opportunities in the market, and translate those insights into cohesive creative direction.
The Three T’s Approach
