About

Hi, I’m Elise - Melbourne-based content and social specialist.

Five years of multi-brand marketing (most recently at Clenergy, before that agency-side at Digital Marketing Corporation London on Robert Wan and M.I.S., earlier at Study Destination and The Joyful School).

Six years of journalism alongside - Le Soir, Le Courrier Australien, Welcome to the Jungle, and others - because good copy usually starts with someone who reads.

From solar to pearls, education to improv: I adapt the voice, keep the rigour. Copywriting, social content, video (concept, shoot, edit), Canva design, French translation.

Editorial brain, social hands. Available immediately.
