Alexander Mann has spent the last decade in the fashion industry creating and reimagining product-based brands—from their physical store concepts to social media strategies, and all areas in between.  He is driven by the timeless power of our environments; the world that is ever-evolving yet so deeply inspired by history.

Most extensively, Alexander has worked with Ralph Lauren, using visual merchandising to translate their iconic brand identity to high-traffic retail locations in New York City and the tri-state area.  He is now the Director of Creative Services for Ghurka—a small American heritage brand—working to modernize the company through store design, photo shoot art direction, trade shows, and innovative marketing strategies.  In addition to managing his own consulting projects in the pop-up retail and hotel space, he spends the remainder of his workweek painting and drawing for private clients.

Washingtonian by birth and East Villager at heart, Alexander studied Art History at The University of Maryland, where he sat stroke seat on the crew team and graduated with honors.  In his free time, Alexander finds himself happiest walking around New York City, stopping frequently along the way to sip Chardonnay with friends, acquire unique antiques, and soak up the latest gallery exhibitions.
