Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarsten Pleiser is a founder and creative leader with 15+ years building B2B sales, marketing, and design systems, now running Design Buffs — a lean, remote creative team that scales visual content for fast-moving companies. He combines hands-on experience in sales and GTM strategy with creative direction, having led client strategy, operations, hiring, and delivery to make design reliable and human. After a serious health break in 2023 he returned to storytelling through award-winning documentary filmmaking and street photography, applying that emotional rigor to purpose-driven brand work. Equally comfortable pitching enterprise buyers or standing behind a cinema camera, he focuses now on presence over performance and helping founders share honest stories without marketing gloss. Based in London, he also volunteers locally and offers portrait work on a donation basis, reflecting a practical commitment to community alongside commercial success.
