As a writer, senior-level project manager, and business marketing ideator, I have helped clients like Lego and Johnson & Johnson come up with winning ideas for their social media and digital marketing campaigns, and have worked as a writer for individuals and businesses all over the world. I have also written for several lifestyle magazines and hold a degree in Secondary Education and English.
I love teaching students how to improve their productivity, speak confidently, interview wisely, manage clients successfully, and so much more.
