I am a highly accomplished marketing leader with 16 years senior level experience. In my career I have founded and led three highly successful marketing agencies and an events company, working at a global level with companies like Unilever, Nike, Nissan, Red Bull, Coca-Cola, HAYVN, Shell, AB InBev, Nestlรฉ, Binance, Ecowatt, Servest, Sonae Arauco, IFA Hotels and Resorts, BMW, Federal Mogul, Luno, MTN, SPAR, Danone and GSK.
I have also served as the CMO of Affinity Group, now rebranded as Alpha, which offers outsourced insolvency, legal, software development and financial services. During my tenure, I spearheaded all sales and marketing initiatives and scaled the company to almost 300 staff in 18 months.
I have extensive marketing experience across a wide range of industries and have successfully conceptualised and executed hundreds of marketing campaigns in my career. I have a range of hard skills including marketing strategy, design, copywriting, content creation, creative direction, PR, video direction, SEO, email marketing, and more. I am a natural leader, a great communicator and storyteller, and a lateral thinker. I am highly collaborative and gifted when it comes to connecting dots and solving problems. As an experienced strategist, I have a passion for research and insights, doing extensive market research to understand target market needs and execute strategies and messaging that deliver measurable bottom-line growth.
