With over 7 years of hands-on experience in branding, marketing, and communications, I’m now embracing new challenges in strategic and management roles. My journey has taken me from Big Tech companies to small businesses and startups, across industries like tech, psychotherapy, education, fashion, events, medical, and shipbuilding.
Some of my key achievements include:
-» Startup / SMBs Growth: I’ve helped startups & SMBs develop brand strategies, craft communication plans, and boost engagement across social channels.
-» High-Impact Campaign Execution: As a Marketing Project Manager at Google, I led the launch of a national campaign that reached over 1 million people and boosted brand awareness for 30+ small businesses. The campaign’s success led to its adoption in other EMEA countries.
-» Content Strategy Revamp: At a mid-sized outsourcing company, I redefined the content strategy, increasing blog output from 5 to 24 articles per year and growing the user base from 100 to 5,000 annually. This achievement earned us a nomination for Best Company Blog at the 2022 Webstock Awards.
Driven by curiosity, I’ve explored various roles and industries throughout my career. Along the way, I’ve earned a BA in Digital Media, an MA in Communication and Advertising, and completed a Masterclass on Building Brands and Influencing Behaviour, alongside courses from Hubspot Academy, Skillshop, and Coursera.
