Welcome! I’m Ansleigh W. Scholtes, and this is AWorkS – a brand strategy and communications consultancy tailored to fashion, beauty and luxury.
I’m currently available for consulting engagements.
An award-winning brand marketer and PR strategist, I drive storytelling that elevates image and delivers powerful media results on a global scale.
In my 15-year career in fashion, beauty and luxury industry communications, I’ve honed my expertise in platform and narrative development, integrated media strategy, PR and media relations, executive visibility, crisis management and corporate affairs. While spearheading PR at IMG, then Elite World Group, I partnered with the fashion industry’s top talent to manage and elevate their public profiles, gaining unrivaled access to the inner workings of these idiosyncratic industries and the powerful personalities that shape them.
Now, through AWorkS, I’m able to leverage my unique background and global network of media and influencers to deliver unrivaled and bespoke services to a fashion, beauty and luxury clientele.
