What I'm looking for
I am an analytical, commercially minded strategy and growth analyst with cross-sector experience across fintech, FMCG, and creative industries. I translate research and digital insights into actionable business strategies that strengthen growth, efficiency, and market positioning.
My background includes leading digital growth initiatives at BlackRock (Preqin), where I increased institutional LinkedIn following by 22% and scaled a newsletter to 19,000+ subscribers, and contributing to revenue-driving research and client referral generation. I have also delivered brand and go-to-market strategies for fashion and beauty clients, producing viral content and measurable audience acquisition results.
I combine hands-on campaign execution and performance analysis with stakeholder engagement and product-informed research to deliver measurable results. I seek roles that value a learning-driven environment, professional development, and long-term impact.
