About me
I am the marketing guy that understands incredibly technical products quickly with a knack for honing down the message to its core before strategising and amplifying that message.
Since graduating from University, I have worked across numerous verticals, including enterprise IT software, industrial printing solutions, and flagship, workplace product launches, and video games.
I realised my love for marketing during my studies and focused many of my modules accordingly to subjects including Marketing Communications, Consumer Behaviour, and Strategic Brand Management.
During my first year, I directly managed one of my agency's clients – a well-known, household name. Within a year, this fledgeling customer had risen to one of the top-10 largest revenue earners for that fiscal year.
Within three years, I had moved agency and was second only to the Account Director. During this time, I became well acquainted with managing a team of direct reports as well as a wider group of creatives and freelancers to deliver projects. As a Senior Account Manager, I became responsible for a business-critical account which saw me manage the social and digital marketing across then countries as well as working with the organisations C-Suite, offering my expertise and consulting on the trajectory and future planning of the marketing efforts.
Having since moved client-side, I have taken ownership of my organisations marketing efforts. I have become well-versed with managing larger teams (many remote), delivering well-coordinated campaigns across numerous mediums to appeal to different cohorts of our prospective customers.
Alongside my work, I am passionate about helping the next generation of marketers and work with both my alma mater and the School of Marketing to mentor aspiring professionals. Outside of this, I am usually found either reading, having discovered my love for it only in my 20s, or out and about with my family – including my faithful greyhound, Luna.
