Marketing and branding strategist driving growth through data-informed go-to-market execution.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven marketing and branding strategist with over seven years of international experience delivering measurable outcomes across fintech, luxury and sustainable fashion, public sector and telecoms.

In consultancy and in-house roles I have established corporate communications units, launched product portfolios, and driven revenue and market expansion through data-led tactics, SEO copy, and performance analysis.
