Hi! I’m Vanessa, founder of Studio Sabbatical,
a brand strategy practice that helps businesses step back to move forward.


I guide brands through a considered pause, a strategic sabbatical,
to clarify direction, refine identity, and return to market
with renewed focus and impact.

My services Include:
Brand Strategy / Artist Branding
Audience Insights & Segmentations
Cultural Research (music, fintech, sports, luxury),
Strategy Workshops & Spatial Branding (CX)

Check out my past projects …
