What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can manage artist creative direction and release campaigns end-to-end, combining video editing, social content planning, and audience-growth strategy in a fast-paced, collaborative team.

I’ve worked across education, hospitality and creative projects over the past few years, which has given me experience managing busy workloads, communicating with lots of different people and staying organised in fast-paced environments.

Alongside previous teaching and management roles, I also work on music and creative projects involving content creation, video editing, release planning and artist support. I enjoy helping projects run smoothly behind the scenes and balancing creative work with organisation and coordination.

I’m interested in remote roles involving executive support, operations, project coordination, creative support and communication. Outside of work, I’m passionate about music, songwriting, visual content creation and creative projects.
