# Founder avatar — Mark Chen 2026 LinkedIn refresh

## Context

Mark is shifting from casual Twitter/Instagram presence to LinkedIn-first thought leadership for his positioning "AI marketing strategist + studio founder" (see `22-personal-brand-context-global`). His current avatar is a casual cafe snapshot — fine for personal channels but mis-signaling for the LinkedIn B2B audience (CMOs, heads of marketing, agency owners across Asia and the US) evaluating him by his profile photo in the first 3 seconds.

He needs a new avatar: more polished, yet still carrying that "warm, human, not corporate" undertone — explicitly NOT a stock-photo corporate headshot. Style adjectives locked in: warm professional + tech-savvy + creative. The output will be used consistently across LinkedIn / X (Twitter) / personal site `markchen.ai` + studio site `lumiere.studio`, and will also serve as the base reference for AI avatar production (`24-ai-avatar-production-global`) for future thought leadership videos (HeyGen / Synthesia avatar clone).
