About Our Founder
Growing up in South Africa, Hayley saw the effects of social injustice firsthand—and the power that a fierce passion and shared purpose can have in bringing about positive social change. It was this early-in-life discovery that inspired her to pursue her passion for telling stories and driving action, ultimately founding the Additive Agency—a brand transformation consultancy wholly committed to helping purpose-driven organizations achieve greater social and business impact.
From public relations to issues-based communications to brand building, Hayley has spent nearly 20 years shaping conversations and amplifying impact. Her ambition for the next 20 years—and beyond—is to continue to invent, build and sustain brands with purpose.
