About

I’m a marketing and growth strategist based in London with 6+ years of experience leading integrated campaigns across EdTech, events, and agency environments. I enjoy turning strategy into measurable outcomes—building audience-focused messaging, coordinating creative delivery, and running paid and organic growth experiments to improve acquisition and funnel performance.

I’ve delivered strong results including a 30% increase in student acquisition, a £1.5M revenue uplift during a campaign cycle, and major efficiency gains through CRM and marketing automation. I work closely with designers, editors, agencies, and internal stakeholders to translate goals into high-performing campaigns, supported by clear dashboards and practical optimization insights.
