Sofia Brunner leads Second Nature with 15 years of cross-sector experience across advertising, strategy, product & tech, innovation, and communications—work spanning consumer brands, hospitality, real estate, finance, and multiple startups with successful exits. Her multicultural upbringing and global career sharpen a cultural intuition that helps teams find product–market fit faster, craft messaging that lands, and make decisions with local nuance in mind. A pragmatic innovator and obsessive problem-solver, she reframes obstacles as opportunities and moves nimbly from big-picture vision to bootstrap execution or large-scale planning—building systems tailored to each project’s stage and budget.
