About me
A highly motivated, driven and creative marketing professional with a proven-track record of managing successful campaigns, and more than ten years within the industry. In previous roles I have been involved in stakeholder engagement projects at all levels, managed high profile media campaigns and built strong, loyal social media followings. I am highly skilled at managing competing demands successfully, often working to very tight deadlines under extreme pressure. I am methodical and meticulous in my approach, ensuring that tasks are prioritised appropriately and deadlines are always met. I am used to liaising with journalists and the media at all levels and I have a proven track-record in securing positive press coverage in print, online, radio and tv publications and channels. I am a strong communicator and pride myself on my ability to build relationships with people from all backgrounds.
