What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters creativity and growth in digital marketing.

I am a Marketing & Communications Specialist with over 20 years of customer-facing experience across various industries, including hospitality, retail, health care, and entertainment. My expertise lies in content creation, social media management, paid media buying, and digital marketing strategy. I am passionate about building brand awareness and connecting with diverse audiences to deliver strong results.

Recently, I relocated from Las Vegas to Portugal, where I have been growing my successful blog, FromVegasToPortugal.com. In my current role as a Media Buyer at Carncross Ltd, I plan, launch, and optimize paid advertising campaigns across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Google Ads. I also work as a Freelance Ad Creative Designer, creating custom ad creatives for various brands, ensuring alignment with their branding and campaign goals.

Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in analytics and performance reporting, allowing me to analyze campaign data and create detailed performance reports for leadership teams. My experience as a Table Games Supervisor at Caesars Entertainment has equipped me with strong leadership and conflict resolution skills, ensuring exceptional customer service in fast-paced environments.
