Hi — glad to be here. I work on structuring PowerPoint presentations so complex ideas are clearer and easier to decide on. Currently refining my process and learning from others here.

Hi everyone — glad to be here. I work on turning unclear ideas into clear, decision-ready PowerPoint presentations for teams and founders. Most of my focus is on structure and clarity rather than visual polish. Right now, I’m refining my process for simplifying complex thinking into slides that are easier to discuss and decide on, especially in higher-stakes conversations. I’m hoping to learn from how others here approach sustainable client work and long-term clarity in their practice. Looking forward to learning from the discussions here.

If you’re new here, welcome! Firstly, thanks so much for joining, I hope you get something out of this community and my journey over the past 15+ years. This is a place to learn, share and grow together! If you have a look at the Classroom tab you'll find the courses. Keep in mind you don't need to 'finish' these by any means, think of them like a working notebook you can dip in and out of. The free course explains the thinking behind the model i've coined 'The Visual Partner' model. The paid course goes deeper into how it works in practice where I'll share the actual numbers, systems, trade-offs, and decisions, from my experience starting my company 'Coastal', that usually stay behind the scenes. Nothing here is designed to push you to scale fast, work more hours, or chase growth for its own sake. The focus is on building something sustainable, calm, and intentional. Take what resonates. Skip what doesn’t, you don’t need to agree with everything for this to be useful, I definitely didn't. If you want to introduce yourself, feel free to share: - What kind of work you do - Where you’re currently feeling stuck (or even where you're killing it!) - What you’re hoping to get from this space Or don’t! that’s fine too :) This is meant to be a quiet, thoughtful place. Glad you’re here, Al
