About us
A boutique strategic growth consultancy that supports brands with ambition.
“Having supported hundreds of brands in creating commercially-grounded strategies - from early-stage start-ups to multi-million-pound businesses - I've developed a sharp instinct for what truly works and how to position brands for meaningful, long-term growth.
“I founded Yellow Flamingo to bring my experience, insight and network to a wider audience, operating as a trusted partner for ambitious brands ready to enter, expand or strengthen their position in the UK. Today, I have the privilege of partnering closely with founders and leadership teams at pivotal moments - combining deep market knowledge, strategic clarity and established industry relationships to ensure a brand's growth is both ambitious and commercially sound.”
