ABOUT ME
For the last 8 years I have lived and worked in London, Iceland, Barcelona and Tokyo. I moved back to Australia in Sept 2017.
​
I'm highly motivated digital marketer with 10+ years of experience. I posses strong leadership skills and an equally strong work ethic. I have always strived to work in industries which I have a passion for. This has led to me focusing on careers in the music industry that involve digital marketing, social media account management, business development and more recently content creation and development.
