I am a seasoned marketing professional passionate about social and environmental impact, working with companies that strive to make a positive difference. With a diverse skill set and a strong background in entrepreneurship, strategic communications, and content marketing, I left my role as the marketing lead at a digital media-tech publisher in 2020 to establish my own communications consultancy, The Mini Project. Today, I primarily focus on helping corporates and impact-focused brands articulate their key messages clearly and eloquently. I assist them in defining their purpose, refining their voice, and connecting with their target audience in the digital landscape through expertly crafted communications, believing in laying the foundation for powerful initiatives by establishing the necessary content framework to amplify and support these brands’ efforts.
