As a confident and highly motivated individual, I can work independently and take responsibility for my personal development and improvement. I am a Forbes-featured creative marketer, who specialises in social media. I have worked in and around marketing for the past 6 years, wearing multiple hats and occupying marketing spaces from a variety of perspectives.

I have experience in organic social, paid social and running social media campaigns. Over the past two and half years, I have run my agency Wellekin, and I have continually developed my skills in marketing, delivering marketing services and consultancy for B2B brands, including clients such as L’Oreal, Hustle+Heels and MPWRD Living. Since starting the agency I have been featured in Forbes, Stylist Magazine, Peckham Peculiar, and Islington Life and was also an expert guest on the Career Coach Podcast.

I make a point to not only keep up with the social media platform’s best practices but also do extensive research to ensure our campaigns and social media strategies are ahead of the curve. I constantly take on opportunities to challenge myself and assessing my growth has made me sharp and ready to easily adapt to any environment I am faced with. Equally, I can build an amicable rapport quickly with colleagues.

2014 – 2017 English and American Literature BA (Hons) (2:1), University of Kent

Core final year modules:  

• Harlem to Hogan’s Alley: Black Writing in North America: This particular module resonated deeply with me because it was an opportunity to explore texts outside of the canon, within an academic space. This module evoked a deepened sense of empathy. Both the contemporary authors of the time and present-day – it was interesting to see how the likes of Toni Morrison and Zora Neale Hurston negotiated a world so different from my own. In this module, I received 66% overall. 
• Other modules: Modernism = 67%, The Stranger = 68%
