Kerstin Norburn

I’m an idea-ator.

I come up with ideas. I workshop ideas. I collaborate on ideas.

I help turn average ideas into great ideas.

I write a mean brief, and turn the complex into simple.

I make videos with people, computers and artists.

I link smart people to other smart people.

I’m fast. Deadline meeting. And fun.

I like to work in the flow.

How’s your idea muscle going?
