I turn complex information into clear, human stories using strategy and visuals.

Hi, My name is Daniele Rossi. (You can call me Dan).

I am a Content Strategist and Illustrator. I partner with brands, agencies, and publications to take dense topics, abstract ideas, complex user journeys, or real-world narratives and translate them into engaging copy and sequential art.

How I help

Most organizations know they need content. Fewer know what to say, who it’s really for, or how to get the message across. This results in content that doesn’t actually reach people.

My work with my educational brand, Franky Banky, taught me how to take a complex, sensitive topic and make it click for people. I bring that same approach to these problems:

  • Not knowing what content is needed, or who it’s for. I figure out what your audience actually needs, and how it serves your goals at the same time.
  • A message that’s too complex, technical, or emotional to land. I translate it into narrative and imagery people feel and act on.
  • Content that isn’t building engagement or trust. I create content that teaches or moves people, with a clear line back to your business goals.
  • Content that isn’t reaching everyone. I make sure it meets WCAG/AODA standards without stripping out the creativity or voice.
