What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters creativity and growth in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated marketing professional with a strong background in social media management and client success. Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Communications at Simon Fraser University, I have honed my skills in developing engaging content strategies and driving brand visibility through various platforms. My experience as a Social Media and Client Success Coordinator at OAK + FORT allowed me to boost monthly store sales by 20% through targeted promotions, showcasing my ability to blend creativity with analytical thinking.

In addition to my marketing expertise, I have a passion for education, serving as an English Tutor and Post-secondary Admission Advisor at Dingxiao English Academy. Here, I develop personalized instruction and assist students in navigating the complexities of university admissions. My role as an International Marketing Assistant at Vancouver Fashion Week further solidified my skills in market research and media outreach, where I successfully managed Chinese social media platforms to enhance engagement and visibility.
