Julie Akiri

At MANTA, I develop and execute social media strategy, creating Reels, short-form video, graphics, captions, and promotional content that aligns with business goals and customer growth priorities.

I use Canva Pro, CapCut, Photoshop, platform insights, and Google Analytics to turn audience behavior and campaign performance into stronger content decisions. I manage calendars, approvals, publishing, and recurring campaign deadlines while keeping brand voice clear and human-centered.

As Marketing Director and Publisher of Macaroni Kid Greater North Houston, I owned editorial, social, newsletter, website, and sponsored content for a community-focused digital media brand. I managed relationships with more than 50 advertisers and local businesses, helped the market rank #1 among approximately 500 markets, and represented the brand on FOX Houston television.

I also bring experience translating complex information for diverse audiences as an ESL Teacher and Mentor Teacher, along with community outreach and earned-media storytelling as the founder of a nonprofit serving local foster children.
