Meet the Founder
Brand Architect, Creative Director, design thinker, problem solver, business-savvy.
Stacey builds brands from the ground up — blending strategy, instinct, and creativity to shape meaningful identities for founders and evolving businesses. With over two decades of experience in marketing, brand strategy, and creative leadership, she creates compelling solutions through insight and an innate understanding of how design, cultural, and market shifts influence the human experience.
She delivers clarity distilled into an actionable brand foundation and cohesive identities that build emotional relevance and long-term resonance.
When a project requires, Stacey has a talent for assembling and aligning the right team — from architects and interior designers to specialized collaborators — bringing together the synergy and expertise needed to execute the vision with cohesion and impact.
Founded in 2010, Funktional has evolved, yet remains small by choice, so that Stacey can stay close to the work and the people behind it.
Thoughtful Design + Bold Ideas ™
We challenge assumptions, question what’s expected, and push beyond safe choices because playing small never leads to remarkable brands.
We build brands with clarity, grounded in strategy, and positioned to stand apart.
We look deeper at what’s missing, what’s possible, and what will move people to act.
We uncover what makes you distinct, solve what’s holding you back, and shape how your brand is seen, felt, and remembered.
