Your brand was your greatest idea.
You've had a few more, but they didn't come with the time or energy to execute them.
Often it feels like you're your own marketing, sales and PR team.
And running a brand requires a lot of right brain energy.

My name is Mistyre Bonds.
I ideate on behalf of creatives, brands, and businesses.
I work with doers who own their lane, but hit a wall when it comes to marketing, explaining, or scaling their vision.

imagination was my best friend.
It made meals out of ramen, turned thrifted jackets into statement pieces, and ultimately propelled me to a full scholarship at UNC Chapel Hill where I studied Art Direction and User Experience Design.
I left my career in Corporate User Experience Design because I refused to operate in the false dichotomy between creativity and business strategy.
I believe that creativity is instrumental to maintaining your bottom line.
and my clients do too.
Before I could even launch our Instagram account, the Lab led organizations like The Embodiment Institute to multi-figure launches, became the premier creative partner for Durham's first Black-woman-led photography studio, and shipped website designs and brand identities for the greatest university in the U.S. (Go HEELS! I mean, Micheal Jordan went there).
