Lara Shepherd

I have been in the industry for over 12 years and my business accumen is outstanding.

I am passionate about advertising and love the fast-paced environment and all the challenges that I want to solve. My previous MTN client said in my reference that in the year and a half working with them I had never missed a deadline

I am filled with integrity, honesty, agility and dedication.

I am a higher performer and received numerous accolades for this from all the companies I have worked at.

I am a team player and believe collaboration is key to success.

I am a very adaptive individual and can adjust myself according to the needs of the client as well as internally.

I have worked on all the telecommunications companies as well as Banks (including Investec) and FMCG.

My professional career has been a challenging but exciting one.

I have worked with many blue-chip clients and have gained a wealth of knowledge about networking and negotiations.

I have learned Project Management and have studied Digital Brand Strategy. I am currently doing a diploma in Advanced Professional Digital Marketing and Advertising.

I have studied Digital Strategy at Vega as well as the Professional Advanced Digital Marketing at the Red and Yellow School

My BCOM was only for 2 years as my father died tragically so I had to leave mid-way as I didn't go to University in Johannesburg. I plan to complete it once I have completed my current Diploma.
