Creative and driven communications student with a strong foundation in digital marketing, branding, and content creation. I bring hands-on experience in managing social campaigns, developing brand identities, and producing content that resonates with Gen Z audiences across platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
Throughout my university studies and freelance projects, I have worked on real-world marketing campaigns, refined my skills in design software like Canva and Adobe Illustrator, and applied digital strategy frameworks such as the PESO model. I am particularly passionate about using data-informed creativity to drive meaningful audience engagement, build community, and help brands stand out in crowded digital landscapes.
With a strong eye for design, an understanding of current social trends, and a commitment to continuous learning, I’m ready to contribute to innovative teams and elevate brand communications with purpose and originality.
