Setting expectations

This part of the internet is all about me.

Want to do business?

This site might not be for you.

I am brand consultant and I love doing business. I currently do business as [a] design agency.

Commericial work involves brand, design, visual and verbal communication across all channels.

Want more Stew?

This site might be for you.

My interests include outdoor activities, game design, self initiated projects, voluntary work and a borderline obsession with 28mm scale tabletop war games.

Excuse the self indulgence

This impenetrable website is a collection of things that I like, I’ve done, and I like to think.

I don’t believe that opportunity is in short supply and consequently I chase new challenges and thrive on change. You won’t find me preaching this on Twitter.

Note: I’m not convinced that social media is all that good for humans. I’m not sure who it is good for (robots perhaps).

I’ve drafted a blog a post about this very topic. As time passes and more people realise that social media isn’t very nice, this draft post is becoming increasingly irrelevant—though no less irreverent.

If you’d like to hear more of my thoughts on this topic it would probably be fastest to phone me.
