“With over a decade of experience in social media, my passion is in understanding how people interact online. I'm curious about how individuals think, feel and act in the digital world, and I believe that impactful marketing happens when we connect with people on a deeper level.
I founded School of Social to put my passion and energy into giving businesses simple solutions to everyday challenges. I can’t wait to collaborate with brilliant minds, create great things, and have loads of fun doing it.”
Experience and qualifications
Over the last 10+ years, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with clients from diverse sectors, including fintech, healthcare, gaming, food & beverage, and lifestyle. I’ve delivered global training and consultancy services for companies such as Google and Meta, where I got my Meta certifications in media planning, buying, creative strategy and lead training. And I actively contribute to the industry through press, TV, radio, and speaking engagements, as well as mentoring and volunteering.
