As the sole social media coordinator and lead copywriter, I am responsible for all social media content creation, strategy and paid media, focusing on building the community and overall engagement on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I also organise, shoot and executive all influencer campaigns. As the lead copywriter, I oversee all elements of tone of voice which includes web, email, social media, press and editorial. Working closely with the design team, I create all product names, descriptions and collection press releases for Marketing and eComm (AW/SS17, AW/SS18 and 2018/19 capsules).

Senior Creative responsibilities include the hiring and on-boarding of new Creatives, client and creative troubleshooting, team leadership, process, product and team development, internal and external presentations. I also lead creative for Born Social's own social media presence.

As a Creative my core focuses were in art direction, branding, photography, graphic design and copywriting. I lead creative for all clients in Amsterdam, following Born Social's expansion into the Netherlands in early 2015. I curated and lead photography for Born Social's social content on Instagram in addition to contributing to Twitter and Medium as a writer. Externally, I gave talks on social media management for a variety of agencies and brands looking to utilise social.

I was the video lead at social media company Starcount. We launched a music platform called Be Discovered, in which I created all video content (75+ videos including interviews and live performances from artists including Little Simz, Shakka and more). I also ran and controlled Be Discovered's social media presence.
