THE SAVORY OBSERVATIONS AND USEFUL ANECDOTES OF AN
Artful Realist
My name is LAURENCE VINCENT. I'm a brand strategist, author, speaker, photographer and lovable nerd based in Los Angeles, California. When I'm not writing here about brands and things that inspire me, I look after The Brand Studio at United Talent Agency. I believe brands must stand for real value; and that people value brands that fulfill a promise through artful experiences.

I took this photo about 15 minutes after Jordan woke up from sedation. She had an MRI today — one of so many we’ve lost count. A few minutes later she was ready to go. She’s one of the most beautiful, courageous, and strong people I’ve ever known. I’m constantly inspired by her — and bewitched by her mettle.
I posted a series of photos from the day here
