I am a highly motivated, enthusiastic and creative graduate with a degree in BA Media Arts & Creative and Professional Writing from St Mary’s University Twickenham. I possess relevant marketing experience through interning with publishing company Simon and Schuster. I acquired valuable industry knowledge and gained insight into developing and implementing marketing campaigns. I demonstrated the ability to able to be a productive member of a team by participating in meetings and work on my initiative when designing flyers and managing social media pages.
I am passionate about building brands and creating campaigns and have done so during my time at university when I spotted a target market for a society. I have technically sound communication and management skills as led and delegated roles to committee members of the society. I also have proficient writing skills as I have established a blog site on wordpress.com called ‘Nishable. I have written fresh content while completing my degree, which has allowed me to develop a structured approach with excellent organisational skills. I am looking for an entry-level graduate role and challenging, fast-paced environment within marketing to utilise and develop my creative skill set further.
