Hear the story behind the studio

I sat down with Elisa Molina on the Poder Latina CEO podcast for a Cafecito con Jefas and talked about the journey from a 3rd grade classroom where I didn't speak English to leading strategy at a Fortune 100, and why I started Thread Studio to help founders turn their story into their strongest strategic asset. We talked about culture, craft, and why your story is your strategy.

Featured In:

Hola, I'm Lu

From Fortune 100 to your brand's biggest cheerleader

I spent over 15 years in corporate strategy and executive communications, with my last chapter in a Fortune 100 Chief of Staff office. I was the person senior leaders called when the strategy needed to land, the story needed to move people, and the room needed to walk away aligned. I loved that work. And then I became the founder sitting across the table trying to figure out how to tell my own story.

I built Thread Studio because I know what it feels like to carry deep expertise, bold vision, and a fire for what you're building, and still struggle to make the brand match. I bring a storytelling lens to everything I do, blending strategy with the kind of warmth and cultural richness that makes your brand feel alive, intentional, and impossible to replicate.

I'm here to help you see what I see: that everything you've built, survived, and believed in long enough to start deserves a brand that stands out as boldly as you do.

Client love

  • Roberta McCarter CEO, Novus Data Journeys

    “Luana has been instrumental in building and launching the Novus Data Journeys brand. Her skill, counsel, and expertise showcase the best of my company.  She brings strategic clarity and creative execution, which has elevated everything from our messaging to our brand presence. She provided an intentional customized strategy to guide us through branding, systems, and launch with thoughtfulness and precision. Working with her feels like having both a strategist and a trusted partner at the table. Her work is a competitive advantage and partnership I highly recommend.”

  • Carina Osuna Founder & Financial Coach, Core Life Habits

    "My brand identity was outdated. I couldn't narrow down my audience or communicate clearly about who I serve. Lu took that mental muddle and put it into clear view. She gave me detail on my identity, values, and how I serve people, but more than that, a complete guide I can actually use. Now I can update my website, show up at events, and communicate about my business without second guessing myself. Everything feels seamlessly threaded together. What surprised me most was how joyful and supportive the process was. Lu came in at a messy time in my life and only uplifted me. She has such a warm heart and really cares about you as a person and your business. She's detail oriented, passionate, and incredibly talented. I feel a million times more confident. I couldn't be happier I chose Lu to help me rebrand my business!”

  • David Higginbotham Founder & CPA, Higginbotham Tax + Advisory

    "Lu got me over the hardest hurdle of launching my practice. I was completely overwhelmed and didn't know where to begin, not just with operations, but with how I wanted to show up and what experience to create for my clients. I was concerned someone outside the accounting world wouldn't understand the complexity, but after our first meeting, I knew she had this. Lu walked me through defining my service strategy and brand voice, then built systems that stayed true throughout: my complete client journey, service workflows, customized templates, and client communications. She gave me a foundation I could build on. What would've been a monumental task I kept avoiding became a clear, repeatable system that actually feels like me. Now I'm fully launched and serving clients through systems that actually work. I have strategic clarity, confidence in my delivery, and my time back to focus on growing my practice.

  • Estee Burgess Real Estate Advisor + Community Leader

    "After 20 years in corporate, my identity was intertwined with the company and the leaders I served. When I stepped into entrepreneurship, I had to answer: Who am I without that? How do I show up as that person publicly? I was honestly spiraling. I didn't know who I was in this new season or how to feel confident sharing that version of myself. Now I know exactly who I am, and I'm fully okay with it. I'm clear on the person I want people to see and love working with. That clarity has been freeing. Luana helped me untangle everything—my ideas, fears, excitement, perceptions—and turn it into something cohesive and deeply authentic. She didn't give me a brand. She helped me uncover mine. Working together felt natural and safe. She truly listened and understood where I was emotionally before diving into strategy. If you're building something and feel unclear about your voice or identity, Luana will help you find it and own it.”
