A snippet of my published work.

Too Poor To Buy Cheap

Retailers face a myriad of challenges each year. From sustainability issues and pandemic-induced lockdowns to the ongoing quest to meet evolving consumer expectations in product development and services, as well as promoting diversity and inclusivity. At the same time, perennial challenges like addressing staff shortages, adapting to digital transformations, and navigating inflation persist and require continuous attention.

It's a lot to handle, isn't it? That's why we interviewed ten retail experts to find out what to expect.

Gen Z Wants Financial Zen

Gen Z is coming of age, and with adulthood comes the reality of managing money. Yet, young adults seem to have conflicting attitudes towards finances. To explore this further, we identified several tensions that we call "The Money Paradox."

For Fitzroy, I delved into the mindsets of young Dutchies to understand how they view money. To start, we conducted thorough desk research to establish a foundational understanding of their attitudes. To validate our findings, we surveyed 100 people between the ages of 16 and 29 to gain insights into their financial perspectives.

Heyleys

Heyleys is a platform designed to connect cancer patients, oncologists, and other key stakeholders. It allows them to explore the best options for treatment and discover new opportunities. Heyleys helps you find information on innovative treatments, and you might even be eligible to participate in clinical trials.

This was one of my first and largest research projects. While working with Heyleys, we interviewed patients, oncologists, hospital staff, pharmaceutical companies, and other stakeholders to create a platform that effectively connects patients with emerging treatment options.

Zeitgeist Box - Triggers for change

While working in the Cultural Insights Department at Fitzroy, we noticed that the rest of the Fitzroy team needed a tool to integrate our research into their creative projects. In response, we developed the Zeitgeist Box, a resource that consolidates 25 key shifts and 75 emerging consumer values for marketers to consider.

The goal of the Zeitgeist Box was to provide valuable insights into evolving consumer behavior, media trends, and technological advancements. This way, the Fitzroy team could create more informed and relevant projects by incorporating these insights.
