Projects
- Building London page from scratchA part of my job role with Rawkus was building up the social media pages for each city. Due to launching in London during my time there we had to build the London page from nothing and get it active enough to pull in a crowd on the launch night. As the company itself is northern based and known launching in both the south and the countries capital successfully was a big undertaking. We incorporated a lot of SEO in our posts, hashtags which linked to our sponsors as well as the use of comment/shares for rewards The result was a successful launch night. A growing page but also a lot less reliance on paying for reach as I was much more focused on organic reach To give a more natural feel to it as well as a focused "buzz" without that sponsored tag all over it.

Education
Film Media Studies
Preston, United Kingdom
Currently study Film and Media at UCLan where I have specialised in music in pop culture, Advertising, digital Marketing and Science Fiction in pop culture. However I feel myself itching to start working in Media full time and to relocate out of Preston.
BA(Hons) Music Journalism
- Preston, United Kingdom
Studied for one year, where I learnt a lot of basic journalism knowledge and digital marketing knowledge including SEO, content creation, shorthand and specialist content creation (in this case music). Stopped after one year as the university cancelled the degree and therefore the funding stopped. After this I switched to Film and Media.
