I'm Elisha Næsheim, a creative and marketing lead based in Singapore. For ten years I've built brands and the content that carries them, across design, film, photography, and copy, and more recently I've led that work rather than only made it. I've directed brand and content at senior level across two organisations at once, and led digital marketing for one of Singapore's leading luxury hotels, earning recognition with the Forbes Travel Guide.
I work across the full span of a brand, from strategy and design to film, photography, and copy. I've carried a marketing function single-handed, and I've led a team that ran one, so I can be a department of one or the person who builds the department. That range keeps a brand's voice consistent across many hands, and it lets me lead from inside the work rather than above it. I build for brands that stand for something, because the best creative work does more than sell.
Everything I create begins with understanding.
Not just what your brand looks like but how it is experienced.
I take time to observe, listen, and uncover what truly resonates with your audience. From there, I shape design and content that feels clear, calm, and aligned, the kind that draws people in without force.
