As an employee of an emerging entertainment startup, my role could be defined in 1000 ways. But for the most part, I am focused on marketing and sales at What Youth. Originally brought on as the sole Manager of Sales and Marketing, the company has grown and we have since employed a Director of Sales which has enabled my transition into marketing and content brand management.Across my many roles, strategic brand management, advertising sales, customer relations, stakeholder management, content creation and curation, social media management, logistics and distribution management, event management, office management, assistant editor, project management, and strategic planning are all skills that I employ daily.

As a personal assistant to the creative directors of Perspectives Photography for the past five years, I watched the company grow from induction to be the successful small business that it is today. I acted as a second shooter and lighting assistant for weddings and studio shoots. I was responsible for post-processing using Photoshop and lightroom editing suites. On top of all this, I had direct contact with clients and so needed to maintain a professional manner at all times. I help to run and coordinate the wedding day in an efficient and organised manner.

As the personal assistant and receptionist to a project manager, I was responsible for making his life easier. I was required to keep a schedule, photocopy and print, take minutes, answer telephones, greet customers and clients, order stationary, organise office events and communicate with internal and external stakeholders. I proficiently used Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, Google Earth, and several online databases. acting as a DOC controller, I was also required to produce and proofread confidential contractual and tender documents.
