Hi! I'm Bonny Lyden, a recent Communication Studies graduate from Texas State University with a passion for creating content that connects with people. Over the past few years, I've built experience managing social media, creating short-form video content, designing graphics, and developing marketing campaigns across a variety of platforms, including Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and Facebook. Most recently, I worked as a Social Media & Marketing Intern at Shmoody, where I planned content calendars, created engaging social campaigns, designed branded graphics, and developed marketing materials that helped connect college students with mental health resources. Through this role, I learned how to blend storytelling with strategy to create content that not only looks great but also drives engagement and builds community. What sets me apart is my ability to combine creativity with organization. I love staying on top of social media trends, brainstorming fresh ideas, and turning them into content that feels authentic to a brand's voice. I'm comfortable behind the camera, editing videos, designing in Canva, and collaborating with teams to bring ideas to life. Whether it's capturing lifestyle content, producing short-form videos, or building a cohesive social media presence, I enjoy creating content that resonates with audiences and delivers results. I'm especially excited about the opportunity at Twine because real estate is about more than just homes; it's about telling stories, building trust, and showcasing lifestyles. I would love the opportunity to help bring that vision to life through engaging, high-quality content that strengthens the Twine brand and connects with current and future clients.
