About me
I have been immersed in the world of Advertising for the last 3 years and have enjoyed the pace of the industry, the people who are attracted to it as well as being involved in creating innovative, behavioural-changing work. I am currently an Account Manager at Haygarth, which has given me an unquestionable skill set and experience that I am truly grateful for. Although the people and culture are exactly what I want, I feel my true interest and excitement draws from what an above the line agency can offer – hence my decision to move. It is the type of work that originally attracted me to the industry and is what I am really passionate about, and I feel it is an environment that suits my natural creative interest and compliments my people skills and willingness to work hard. I am also open to other creative industries where I can utilise my skill set that I have gained from Advertising and account management.
