What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my extensive marketing experience to create impactful brand strategies and foster meaningful partnerships in a dynamic and innovative environment.

With over 14 years of experience in marketing and communications, I have honed my skills in brand partnerships, strategic alliances, and experiential marketing. My journey has been marked by a commitment to creating story-driven experiences that connect people and brands in meaningful ways. I have successfully led high-impact campaigns across various industries, including technology, hospitality, luxury, and entertainment, consistently delivering measurable results.

In my recent role as Head of Ticketing, Guest Experience, and Brand Partnerships at The Gathering, I spearheaded strategic partnerships and maximized revenue through innovative ticketing solutions. My ability to liaise with PR and media has generated widespread coverage, enhancing brand visibility. I thrive on crafting high-touch experiences that resonate with audiences, and I am passionate about leveraging my strategic insight to drive brand equity and customer engagement.
