I build scalable marketing and recruiting operations that improve execution and stakeholder alignment.
What I'm looking for
At NewtonX, I own marketing project management and transformed Asana into a scalable system for campaign execution and cross-team coordination. I built standardized workflows, structured intake and prioritization, and workload visibility to improve predictability and mitigate delivery risks.
At McKinsey & Company, I coordinated interview workflows across multiple time zones, managed candidate lifecycle processes, and maintained recruitment data governance and reporting. I partnered with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver data-driven recruitment updates and improve hiring efficiency.
My background also includes sales, cabin crew at Emirates, university recruitment, and HR administration. I bring experience working calmly under pressure with diverse stakeholders, supported by an MSc in Hospitality and Tourism Management and a BSc in International Business and Business Administration.
