Alexa has worked in advertising and brand research for over
12 years evaluating campaigns for literally hundreds of brands.
From tiny new brands with barely any media spend like Travelocity,
through the UK greats of Cadburys and Marks and Spencer, to the global brands
of Orange and Philips, she has covered pretty much most categories and media.
From learning the basics at Research International, Alexa held the
position of Head of Quantitative at Hall & Partners before setting up her
own company with colleagues. Her new company Monkey See brings thinking
from Behavioural Economics to the world of ad and brand research to shed new
light on age old issues closing the gap between what people ought to do if
logic prevailed and what they actually do, because they are human.
