I am an extremely creative individual.
I have thrived in many working conditions and have become accustomed to working at pace.
I discovered my creative passion whilst on work experience in a Cambridge based advertising agency, Kiss Communications.
Since leaving sixth form, I have had positions in catering and retail, and have enjoyed training in TV, TV performance and advertising.
In the winter of 2016 I was able to shadow a Director of Create and Craft TV where I queued graphics for specific call to action moments, selecting and preparing product shots, as well as organizing set before we went live. My few days at Craft and Create were invaluable, as it taught me how live TV really works.
I have also interacted with clients, how to handle and tackle briefs, whilst sticking to a tight time frame.
At University, I learnt how to organise my independent learning and development; which has directly improved my work and self-discipline. My final project was testing, yet proved highly successful. I wrote a song, filmed (with acceptation to a few shots), edited, and created social media platforms, based on my target audience and my star persona (VIXUS).
My ‘user-generated’ star was well received, and I saw a steady increase in online awareness and views on profiles; including VIXUS’s music video.

I have a valuable understanding of the marketing industry and e-communications.
I love to give constructive input, and learn from others with complimentary experience.
I am currently working in a retail company, Clas Ohlson, where I have controlled their social media platforms. I created content, social media plans, generated images and created one of the most liked posts on their Facebook page.
Also at Clas Ohlson, I was recently offered an opportunity to cover for a period of time in the Customer Service sector. In this position, I have not only developed my customer service skills, but I have also hugely enhanced my understanding of the running of a business and logistics.
I strongly believe I could have a successful career in TV, and believe that in-conjunction with my marketing knowledge and skills, I will become a very successful individual at anything I set my mind to.
