Alisson A
@alissona
I’m a multi-passionate social media manager and artist who creates engaging visual storytelling and campaigns that grow communities.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multi-passionate creator combining art, digital media, and community engagement to deliver standout social content. As a Social Media Manager at PenGems, I develop Instagram content, write captions aligned with brand voice and marketing strategy, engage directly with the online community, and collaborate on creative campaigns and product launches. I also bring video editing and visual direction skills to produce content that highlights products and increases audience engagement.
Beyond social media, I build hands-on, design-driven work—creating custom jewelry with preserved flowers and resin techniques, and supporting operations through quality control and fulfillment. I’ve also taught visual arts to kindergarten through 5th grade, developing lesson plans, managing classroom projects, and even initiating an after-school Art Club. I bring that same clarity, creativity, and coaching mindset to every campaign I run.
