Discover my journey
and mission
Hello. I’m Zuzana Ellis, a consultant and creative thinker passionate about solving problems, fostering collaboration, and driving innovation.
My journey started during my studies, where I discovered my love for tackling diverse challenges and project-based work—a passion that still inspires me today.
I’ve had the privilege of contributing to European-funded projects and crafting marketing strategies that create meaningful change. What truly excites me is empowering clients with impactful tools and ideas while embracing new techniques and creative trends to bring fresh perspectives to every project.
Let’s turn challenges into opportunities and create something extraordinary together!
When I’m not crafting designs or strategies, I enjoy exploring nature, honing my skills, and pursuing creative hobbies like photography. Check out my photography here and on Instagram #ellisvisual.
