What people say about me
Maël Frize, CEO at Filestage
“He was absolutely key in helping us define our brand and voice
It’s not often you get to work with someone like Ethan. As his manager, I was constantly impressed by his sharp mind and his unique ability to think big-picture while also rolling up his sleeves to tackle the details.
But beyond his skills, I'll always remember Ethan for his calm, thoughtful approach. He was a natural collaborator and an absolute team player, making him a fantastic colleague to work alongside. He was absolutely key in helping us define our brand and voice, and I couldn't recommend him more highly.

“He’s patient, caring and genuinely invested in his team’s growth
Working with Ethan has been an absolute pleasure. He has an incredible skill set in different areas of marketing, including branding, creative copywriting, and SEO strategy. At Filestage, he grew our blog into a powerful growth channel and defined our brand tone of voice from scratch, setting a clear foundation for how we communicate.
What truly sets him apart is his leadership. He’s patient, caring, and genuinely invested in his team’s growth. I’m grateful for everything I learned under his guidance and would recommend him wholeheartedly!
Ekene Chikwendu, Product Designer at Filestage
“His work consistently elevated the user experience
Ethan possesses a rare talent for UX writing. He has an incredible knack for taking complex feature ideas and translating them into copy that is not only clear and intuitive but also perfectly embodies the Filestage brand voice. His work consistently elevated the user experience, making complicated processes feel simple and guided.
Beyond his writing skills, Ethan and I would often brainstorm in product design. Our brainstorm sessions were some of the most productive because he approached UX reviews with a sharp eye for both the big-picture user journey and the tiny micro-interactions that make a product feel polished. He always asked the right questions that challenged assumptions and pushed us toward a better, more user-centric outcome.
Any product team would be lucky to have a creative mind like Ethan on their side. I couldn't recommend him more highly.

“He is incredibly organised, passionate and creative
Ethan is someone anyone would like to have on their team. He is incredibly organised, passionate and creative in his approach, which makes working with him both inspiring and effective. I grew a lot while he was my manager and tried to pick up many of his great qualities along the way.
He gives the best feedback I’ve ever received: always clear, guiding you in the right direction without being too harsh, and always in a professional way. When you get his feedback or work with him on a project, you’re never left wondering what to do next. On top of that, his energy and positivity make him one of the most valued and loved team members in any company.

“Ethan is rare: a creative who also understands numbers
When Ethan joined Filestage, we had a decent product but a weak a brand with an unclear voice. He built the brand from the ground up and helped turn Filestage into one of the top online proofing solutions globally.
On top, he manages a happy, talented team that loves him. His team's work helped 4x our organic traffic and delivered top notch campaigns that stood out in a very crowded market.
Ethan is rare: a creative who also understands numbers. He will write killer copy, craft stunning visuals, then run CRO tests and make sure all works! Working with him is inspiring, he makes everyone around him better. Any team would be lucky to have him.
Peter Steidel, Social Content Creator at Filestage
“He consistently guided us with the right balance of advice and freedom
I had the pleasure of being mentored by Ethan, who was an exceptional and hands-on leader of our team. He consistently guided us with the right balance of advice and freedom, making sure we had the structure we needed while encouraging our own growth.
Ethan’s leadership was remarkable, he knew when to give guidance and when to let us take ownership. Thanks to his mentorship, each of us was able to improve every single day, both professionally and personally.
Any company would be lucky to have him. With Ethan, you don’t just get a manager, you get a leader who empowers people, builds strong teams, and makes sure everyone succeeds together.

“He brings new ideas, fantastic creative skills and a genuine drive for excellence
Ethan is my direct manager, and it's an honour to have such a talented creative to support me. As a manager, he's a clear communicator and a great listener. As Head of Brand and Creative, he brings new ideas, fantastic creative skills, and a genuine drive for excellence to our team every day. I have truly learned a lot from him during my 1.5 years at Filestage.
Doug McKerson, Founder and CEO at Longship Marketing
“His positive impact on the company began immediately
Ethan is the most talented copywriter, and creative visionist, that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. His positive impact on the company began immediately, epitomizing the concept of "hitting the ground running".
Ethan's turn of phrase is magnificent, but he also combines it with an instinct for strategy, meaning he constantly brings the bigger picture into the smaller details. Having previously thought of myself as a writer, witnessing real excellence has put things into a new perspective.
Ethan is also a great collaborator, and has a talent for bringing colleagues together to drive projects forward in alignment. It was an absolute pleasure to work together, and I hope that our paths cross again in the future.
Adam Kelly, Designer at Filestage
“He can spot a mistake from what feels like space
I had the privilege of working with Ethan when he was my boss and Head of Creative and Brand. I was part of his team as a graphic designer and together we worked on a ton of projects that really modernised and levelled up the brand.
Ethan works with a methodical approach and has an incredible eye for detail. He can spot a mistake from what feels like space. His design sense is sharp and consistent, making things look great while keeping purpose front and centre.
Ethan is a dedicated and collaborative leader who inspires those around him. Any company that brings him onboard will gain not just a strong creative mind but a true asset to their team and culture.
Muriel Skusa, Senior SEO & Content Manager at Filestage
“Ethan is a brand and creative expert and an excellent copywriter
He has developed our tone of voice and writing guidelines, making it easy for the team to create consistent content across all channels. It was an absolute pleasure to collaborate with him on any SEO content. Every brief you give him, he turns into valuable, engaging articles or web pages that drive organic traffic and conversions.
Besides of all his brand building and writing work, he also did a great job in managing the entire content team and freelancers. It‘s a joy working with Ethan since he’s an amazing person, always supportive, reliable and well organized.
