"Every authentic brand is a story about self-authoring.
Whole Body Intelligent Branding is about actualizing the authentic."

Who is Ravennabridge?
What is our Story?
A Note From The Principal
Ravennabridge brings over three decades of strategic branding experience to its clients.
Right from the beginning, its founder and principal Alice Gannon, with a masters in branding strategies, has aligned to a core tenet of next generation branding - that branding be approached as both strategic architecture and as an intelligent holistic experience in all areas of an organization's culture and its endeavors.
Three decades ago, to speak about branding strategically AND holistically in this way was a radically new concept. Today branding has evolved into being a more widespread central strategic business practice.
Alice Gannon has remained at the evolutionary edge of branding by devoting her time to one central question in her life, namely the question of how we can relate to ourselves and one another in ways that are more evolutionary and consciously resonant.
To this end, Alice made her own path to spend time with pioneers in the fields of leadership, creativity, psychology and consciousness and is a certified coach in transformation and leadership, conscious relationships, and whole-body intelligence.
A graduate of the Yale School of Management's Women's Executive Leadership program, Alice bridges both the practicalities of business with a new consciousness into next generation strategic leadership giving her clients, the visionary support they need to fully self-actualize.
She is adept at reflecting back and co-creating in a collaborative spirit to both inform and unfold branding strategies that are inarguably true for them and weave them as a life-giving centrifuge in all areas of an enterprise, not from the top down or even the bottom up rather a fully 360 degree evolutionary experience creating a robustly authentic (vs slogan based) branding experience.
True to Alice, she brings also her creative side to the design process having studied graphic and web design through the University of Washington and Bellevue College and also led creative teams.
The through question of how we relate to each other and the world around us also informs Alice's oeuvre as a contemporary artist exploring consciousness through different media artworks. And true to her Irish origins Alice Gannon is also a storyteller as a both short and long form writer, and public speaker.
When she's not helping clients with whole body intelligent branding, she's a lead facilitator at The Alice Institute helping the curious deepen and transform their skills in leading, relating, living and creating more authentic and whole-body intelligently inclusive lives.
Alice brings a unique genius in that she invariably opens you up to new evolutions of you, your company, products and services.
Alice delivers a very practical down to earth experience where attention to the details of the structural and technical aspects of brand architectural design and implementation are woven into place to support marketing and communications sustainably.
Origins
Every brand is a story about self-actualization and our story is too. Ravennabridge's origins begin three decades ago when its founder Alice Gannon traveled by train deep into the Black Forest, Germany crossing the famous Ravenna Brücke (bridge).
Crossing the Ravenna bridge in the Black Forest was symbolic at the time because it marked the threshold between the world she knew and her first adventure from home where she knew no one and needed to rely on herself alone. It's at threshold moments like these when we get to know who we really are.
BIG LEAPS are Easier With Bridges!
At this time too, she felt supported by the bridge set into the rocky ravine, appreciating that big leaps are much easier with bridges!
We are not alone. There is always support connecting us with the help we need to get to our next destination.
Fast track a few decades later, Alice would once again find herself taking another big leap on her journey and again crossing a Ravenna bridge, this one half way round the world in Seattle, Washington.
With decades of big leaps and many bridges crossed...
