Career highlights
I am a Digital Media Executive at MediaPlus Group. I graduated with a Master’s in Business Marketing and ever since I was introduced to the digital world, it became my passion. My career began in a tech start-up, enriching my practical skills in digital marketing for both apps and websites.

The digital world for me is a learning roller-coaster, always exciting and moving forward, keeping me motivated to learn and improve my skills in the field.

What guides me forward is working smart and working hard, always accepting criticism, never not learning from anyone and every situation, not being afraid of making mistakes, finding new ways to be creative, setting high but attainable goals and always sharing them, and most importantly, always dreaming big.
Side hustle
Helping those around me with their small business by managing their social media pages and launching their advertisement campaigns is how I fill up my free time. It keeps me motivated and up-to-date with what’s happening in the field. Nature is my go-to when I need a boost of creativity, working out and music are my way to de-stress.
