While I was living in the UK I was working in social media content creation and worked with brands through this. It was in the pet industry having my own dog account with 190k followers on instagram and over 100k on tiktok. I largely did this work solo at home fulfilling a brief and then submitting to brands and making needed adits but also would work on set with the brands. I worked with large companies like Burberry, Google and Etsy as well as small businesses such as start up pet insurance companies and dog clothing brands.

• Enhanced brand awareness by creating engaging and shareable social media content.
• Developed an effective social media strategy, resulting in consistent growth in followers and engagement rates.
• Leveraged industry trends and news to create relevant and timely posts that increased audience interest.

Previous to this I work in a sales assistant role for a clothing brand. This was a fast paced store being next to Oxford circus in the middle of the central London shopping district.

• Greeted customers and helped with product questions, selections, and purchases.
• Maintained a clean and organized store environment.
• Processed transactions and accepted returns using point-of-sale systems
• Participated in periodic inventory counts.
• Took on extra shifts and was flexible in my scheduling to help alleviate staff shortages and sickness
