What I'm looking for

I'm open to connections and discussions around digital marketing, social media, SEO, paid media, lead generation, AI-enabled marketing strategy, and business growth.

I'm currently delivering integrated marketing for Value Tyres, growing the Hankook, Laufenn, and Linglong brands through SEO, SEM, social media, content, brand management, and customer engagement.

Previously, I led marketing for Toyota, Volkswagen, Nissan, and Kia at McDermid Auto Collective, using sales insights, campaigns, events, and lead generation to optimise ROI. At Gough Cat, I grew Instagram from 800 to 30,000 followers and delivered website, content, social, and digital projects across the Gough Group.

I've also led digital and social strategy for TelstraClear, PHD, Archibalds, and clients across legal, finance, medical insurance, automotive, machinery, telecommunications, FMCG, IT, and fintech. I'm Google Cloud-accredited in Generative AI and use AI to strengthen marketing strategy and business growth.
