Summary

I am a committed and energetic individual with passion for the media industry and am looking to explore new opportunities.

I am a reliable and dependable team player with excellent communication and organisational skills. I regularly experience working in high pressure environments so have learned to navigate situations quickly and efficiently, always keeping a high standard to my work.


In 2021 I was one of ten people selected to take part in the motion media scheme at IPG Media Brands. I experienced roles in the Paid Social sector as well as the Comms Design team and the Out-Of-Home team. I have worked across exciting clients such as Amazon, LEGO and Sky and gained a wealth of knowledge amongst multiple parts of the media and marketing business.
