Meet the team

Who you will actually be working with.

You get the two of us, not a junior account manager. That is the point.

Anna Scaife · founder + strategy

I have made these decisions with my own money on the line.

I started Anna Lou of London on a market stall in 2000 and spent twenty five years building it into a globally distributed jewellery brand, stocked in Harrods, Selfridges and Harvey Nichols, licensed with Disney, Hello Kitty and Ray-Ban, and sold into Japan, France and the United States. I did every job in it at some point: designer, art director, copywriter, buyer, negotiator, boss.

Since then I have co-founded an AI education platform with St Mary’s University, worked as a fractional lead for founders who needed someone senior in the room, and advised on pricing, licensing and market entry.

I am also an ICF accredited coach, CPD accredited in trauma informed leadership, and I run a separate wellbeing practice at annalouwellness.com. The coaching and wellbeing work itself lives over on that site, not in this one.

Aneeza Khan · technical lead

I make the digital side actually work together.

I work across web development, ecommerce and digital systems: Shopify and WordPress builds, theme and plugin work, migrations, technical SEO, email, CRM and automation. I have also worked in-house as an IT team lead, so I am used to being the person who has to make the technology work in the real business, not just hand over a site and disappear.

My MSc in Cyber Security Management shapes how I build: I naturally think about structure, risk, data and what happens when different systems connect. I have supported clients across multiple countries and have worked alongside Anna across her businesses for seven years, which is why our work fits together without the usual handover gap.

My role at THE FOUNDER STUDIOS is the technical side: the sites, systems, email infrastructure, automation, SEO foundations and security — and translating all of that into something a founder can actually use.
