I make the complicated make sense.
Hi there! I’m Jonathan Stone and I’m a Creative and Marketing Director with a background in cultural anthropology. My career spans public health, clinical research, healthcare technology, AI, science, education and consumer brands.
I’m forever curious about what makes people care, what earns their trust, and what makes them pay attention and take action. I turn those insights into brands, campaigns, experiences, and stories that stay with people.
I’m strategic, but deeply hands-on and love the craft of making things. The best creative starts with understanding people, asking questions, finding what matters, and making it impossible to ignore.
