Message

I'm a digital marketing professional with experience in social media management, content creation, digital advertising and marketing operations. I currently manage social media for clients across different industries, including renewable energy, food and construction, handling content planning, copywriting, scheduling, website updates and day-to-day account management.

Over the past few years, I've also worked as an Operations Manager for a luxury real estate marketing company, where I developed internal processes, improved workflows, managed CRM systems and reporting, and supported marketing and sales operations. Alongside this, I provide virtual assistance and content support to an online education business, helping with website updates, newsletters, course materials and administration.

Earlier in my career, I spent over six years in digital marketing within the travel and hospitality sector, managing advertising campaigns, monitoring performance and reporting on results. I hold a BCom in Marketing Management from the University of Johannesburg and am comfortable working with tools such as HubSpot, Canva, Wix, WordPress, Google Analytics and Google Workspace.

I'm particularly interested in remote opportunities in digital marketing, social media management, content management and marketing operations. I enjoy combining creative work with organisation and problem-solving, improving processes and finding practical ways to help teams work more efficiently. I value clear communication, collaboration and taking ownership of my work, and I'm always keen to learn new skills and explore better ways of working.
