Hi there! I’m Karen Poppe, a content creator and UGC specialist based in Valencia, Spain. Over the past four years in recruitment and sales I developed a strong interest in marketing, writing job descriptions, refining tone of voice, and targeting the right audience. That passion led me to content and storytelling, transitioning into native UGC creation. I manage full short-form video workflows from scripting to filming, editing, and final delivery, creating original content tailored to each brand’s product, audience, and platform requirements while crafting engaging copy (hooks, captions, titles, CTAs) aligned with brand voice and best practices.
