Hi, I’m Sophie Dobbin, a passionate and self-made influencer and social media marketing professional with over 4.5 years of hands-on experience. I’ve built my career through instinct, persistence, and the ability to place myself in the right rooms and conversations— something people describe as winging my way here. I went on to found Eight Agency to connect talent with leading brands and to craft engaging campaigns that drive results. I thrive on creative direction, content creation, and event planning, and I love building meaningful partnerships with brands such as Harvey Nichols, Flannels, Puma, Kurt Geiger, Schuh, and Jo Malone. I’m always looking to expand my knowledge, grow my network, and explore exciting new opportunities in influencer marketing and brand storytelling.
