Aspiring fashion marketer with strong skills in publicity and customer service.
What I'm looking for
I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Marketing at the University of Leeds, where I have excelled academically, achieving a 1st at the end of my second year. My education has equipped me with a solid foundation in sustainable fashion, imaging fundamentals, and the principles of fashion marketing. I am passionate about the intersection of creativity and commerce, and I strive to bring innovative ideas to the fashion industry.
In my recent role as a Publicity Assistant, I have successfully managed various campaigns, from strategy development to execution. I organized content screenings, coordinated with teams, and tracked budgets to ensure the success of our initiatives. My previous experience as a Sales Assistant at Clarks honed my customer engagement skills, where I consistently exceeded sales targets and was recognized as the top seller. I believe that my diverse experiences in both marketing and customer service make me a valuable asset to any team.
