Anné
FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Hi! I’m Anne, founder of Azure Waves Branding, and the face behind the creativity.
Out of my 35+ years multi-varied career, I have 17 years of experience collaborating with small- to medium-size businesses in different industries, helping them with their marketing, branding or rebranding needs. I’ve also been providing marketing, photography and on-site assistance at events, including multi-day international conferences. To see my photography work, go to Anne Phillips Photography.
I love, breathe, think and eat all things branding and marketing.
Being both left and right brained, creative problem solving is one of my greater strengths. Yet, no matter what I do - I do it with dedication and passion, while making sure end results meet or exceed client expectations, and without lengthening the process timeline.
My goal is to create long-term meaningful solutions that work and authentically represent the essence of the client's brand.
A few personal facts about me: I was born and raised in the beautiful, small medieval country of Estonia. In Estonian, my name Anne means "talent." I’m a proud mom of an adult son who graduated University of Florida with IT degree and who also serves as an EMT. When I'm not working, I love to spend time in nature and travel.
