About
I'm a digital marketing and social media professional with over three years of experience. My background spans social media management, content creation, email marketing, campaign coordination, and CRM management; all delivered independently for US-based clients across different time zones. At my most recent role I grew LinkedIn reach by 60%, contributed to 250% YouTube subscriber growth, and managed the full marketing operation simultaneously across social media, email, webinars, and performance reporting. My former employer described me in a LinkedIn recommendation as someone who anticipates needs before being asked and eliminates the back and forth entirely; and that's something I'm genuinely proud of. I'm AI-native, organized, and proactive. I thrive in environments where reliability and ownership matter; and I consistently deliver. I'm on the lookout for my next marketing role.
