Brett West is a strategic communications consultant whose work sits at the intersection of brand, leadership, and narrative.
Over the course of his career, Brett has advised organizations navigating growth, change, and public visibility — helping leaders clarify how they think, align how they communicate, and express that thinking consistently across teams and channels.
His experience spans corporate communications, brand strategy, and executive messaging, including work with founder-led businesses, complex organizations, and mission-driven enterprises. Across sectors such as professional services, real estate, nonprofit, education, and public-facing organizations, Brett has been trusted to guide high-stakes conversations, shape leadership narratives, and bring coherence to fragmented messaging.
His experience includes high-stakes communications contexts where language was actively tested, facts were rigorously vetted, and credibility could not be assumed. In those environments, clarity, discipline, and truth were not preferences — they were requirements.
Brett founded Equipo Studio to formalize a way of working he had practiced for years: operating as an extension of leadership teams, translating strategy into language, and ensuring that brand expression reflects how organizations actually think — not how templates suggest they should sound.
This work is grounded in experience, pattern recognition, and judgment — not formulas.
