I currently manage accounts for 5+ clients, handling everything from content strategy and short-form video production to community engagement and performance analysis. Before launching my own agency, I built my expertise managing social media for brands like Nailed It! Media and Navigating Your Twenties, where I grew audiences by 150+ followers a month, ran brand partnerships and giveaways, and produced daily content across Instagram and TikTok. I've also launched accounts from scratch, including social media presence for a film director at Dektor Film Group, and drove marketing campaigns at Chartwells that beat sales goals by nearly 9%.
