I'm a brand marketer with a love for psychology and a passion for creativity, both of which have been my driving forces in pursuing a career in marketing.I have 7 years of media agency and brand side experience, highly skilled in B2C multi-channel marketing campaigns across paid and owned channels, from inception through to evaluation. I’m incredibly passionate about creating meaningful connections between consumers and brand, and the power of brand to drive long term growth.I began my career at OMD Sydney, Australia’s largest media and comms agency, where I developed and executed media strategies for clients including Bacardi Martini Australia, Rebel Sport and Sydney Swans.Driven by my curiosity and appreciation for brand strategy, I transitioned client side to REA Group, a leading global digital business specialising in property. In this role I contributed to growing the brand and audience for Australia’s biggest online property portal, realestate.com.au, through the execution of the brand strategy. I also led the marketing activities for flatmates.com.au, Australia’s largest shared accommodation site. Having long admired the marketing landscape in the UK, I set a goal to broaden my experience by relocating to London and have since secured the role of UK Brand Executive at American Express.
