The team that turns expertise into authority.
426 is a focused team of strategists, designers, and client partners who know how to take what you have already earned and make the market see it, trust it, and pay for it.
Strategy, brand, and execution under one roof.
Every authority brand moves through positioning, messaging, design, and sales thinking without losing the thread that makes the expert worth trusting. Each person here owns a different part of that journey — from market position to the details that make premium fees feel justified.
Adam Rozen
Founder
Adam has a rare gift for finding an expert’s true position in the market. He has spent his career turning hard-won expertise into brands that command trust — and fees — helping authorities build businesses that get booked again and again.
Chris Luis
Co-Founder
Chris is the systems mind behind 426. He architects how the studio runs — strategy, marketing, and client fulfillment — turning a client’s expertise into a premium authority brand that gets seen, trusted, and paid.
Connor Hanley
Senior Associate, Client Partnerships

Senior Associate, Client Partnerships
Lexie keeps every partnership moving with intention. She works alongside clients from the first call through launch, making sure momentum, communication, and results never slip between stages.
Jessica Delgado

Monica Rico
Lead Designer
Monica brings authority brands to life across every page and pixel. She delivers clean, high-end web design that makes the right people stop scrolling and start paying attention.
Valeria Guevara
Lead Designer
Valeria crafts the visual identities that make our clients impossible to ignore. With a sharp eye for branding and a love of illustration, she designs the websites and brand systems that make premium positioning feel inevitable.
How we show up
Position before promotion
We never make noise on behalf of an unclear message. Positioning comes first, so everything we ship afterward compounds instead of competing with itself.
Premium before popular
Reach is not the goal — trust is. We build brands for the rooms where decisions get made, not for the feeds where attention gets rented.
Booked before busy
Every deliverable answers one question: does this move a client closer to being chosen? If it doesn’t get you seen, trusted, and paid, it doesn’t ship.
You bring the expertise. We build the authority.
