My first stint as a career woman began when I was five. An only child prone to finding enjoyment in fairly banal, made-up activities, I observed while watching my parents pay bills one day that I too wished to be a responsible grown up doing my "business". Rifling through the recycling bin to dredge up discarded pay stubs, utility bills and banking statements, I began the task of meticulously organizing them, vehemently dictating tasks to the cat and play presenting reports to my amused mother.
I like to think this early tenacity and proclivity for business has informed my journey ever since. I began my professional career as a journalist then went on to focus on strategic communications for a multimillion-dollar nutrition brand, and subsequently managed projects for a global client at one of the most respected and renowned advertising agencies in the world.
I am currently seeking a position that utilizes my strengths and interests in creatively and strategically elevating and innovating brands, with a particular focus on digital.
