I work in social media, but the part I enjoy most is helping brands and people feel more connected online. Over the years, I’ve worked across travel, beauty and lifestyle brands, building communities, creating content and finding ways to make social media feel more engaging, more creative and less formulaic. I love understanding what makes people stop scrolling, what makes them interact, and how to create content that actually feels like the brand behind it. My experience spans content creation, community management, influencer campaigns, paid and organic social, training and content planning. I’ve led social strategy across networks of 500+ people, increased engagement by 387%, and built online communities designed to bring people together rather than just push content out. I’m at my best working with brands that want social media to feel human, creative and genuinely engaging.
