@nicolebayona
Social communicator and content creator focused on migrant integration, digital marketing, and social impact.
What I'm looking for
I am a multilingual social communicator and content creator with experience in intercultural communication, community support, and digital marketing. I have produced Spanish-language journalism and translated local news to serve Hispanic communities in Finland.
My background includes peer support and local guidance for migrants, advising on accessibility for immigrants with disabilities, and coordinating integration workshops. I combine hands-on community work with content strategy to increase reach and trust.
I have supported diplomatic public relations at the Consulate of Colombia, drafted official reports, and helped organise events and protocol during an internship at the Permanent Mission in Vienna. I also bring customer service and community management experience from retail and brand roles.
Currently I am developing advanced social media and marketing strategies through the Social Media Pro program at Haaga-Helia. I seek projects that promote gender equity, sustainability, and improved access to information for vulnerable communities.
