Summary

With over 8 years of experience in Digital Marketing, 10 years in client facing roles and a degree in Fashion Business, I have a detailed and sophisticated understanding of a number of digital marketing platforms such as Facebook Ads Manager and Google Ads, as well as SEO, websites, and Google Analytics just to name a few, as well as maintaining/developing client relationships.

I am equally passionate about identifying gaps and developing marketing strategies & effective communications to fill them. It is the combination of these passions that has driven positive business results for the many clients I have managed.

I have often been told by my superiors and colleagues that I have a positive attitude, am detailed and thorough, a people person, confident, and someone who cares about the work and clients. I enjoy maintaining positive relationships with my clients and colleagues, as well as helping businesses succeed and grow.
