Career highlights
Once upon a time, armed with my HR degree, I made the obvious choice to tie the knot with LinkedIn. Together, we discovered and recruited countless professionals. But alas, our union hit a rough patch.
7 years ago, I switched gears and now find myself juggling between creative, studio, admin and production to manage clients.
My experience spans industries across leading brands such as du, Emirates Airlines, SCB, Porsche, Canon and Al Futtaim.
Additionally, I was one of 50 chosen for a yearlong program by the Marketing Society and TikTok, aimed at advancing marketeers’ careers.
Guiding principles
– Rejection is redirection
– Doing the right thing > saying the right thing
– Empathy > deadlines
– Integrity, authenticity, and conscientiousness
Side hustle
My side hustle continues to hustle to achieve side hustle status but hopefully it will be professional health coaching someday. For now, we consult pro bono, collect exotic tea, and attempt to travel.
