Career highlights
As a producer with Augustus Media, my ambition, dedication, and innovative approach to my work, has allowed me to grow immensely over the past 2 years, setting new goals for myself along the way. I’ve tackled developing new shows, from ideation to execution, curating each one specifically in order to reach unique target audiences. I’ve taken on board the pre and post-production for our shows, where my diligent work ethic and attention to detail have played a huge role. In addition to maintaining Guest Management standards over the course of my time as a producer, I’ve also challenged myself into stepping into the role of host, presenting for ‘The Lovin Dubai Show’, our Smashi Verticals, and across our social platforms. I see this as the start of my career journey and will continue to be curious and seek new areas of growth wherever possible.
Guiding principles
Embrace the power of asking – Whether it’s seeking clarity or making a request, never hesitate to step outside of your comfort zone and inquire. You’ll be amazed at the opportunities that await you when you take that first step.
Envision and affirm – You already know what you want, now it’s time to make it happen. Think of life as a series of lottery tickets – the more you purchase, the greater are your chances of winning big.
