Instructor
Hey you, I’m Maggie. I'm a digital marketer and your creative instructor.
Back in 2016 I was first introduced to the world of social media marketing. I was SO excited about the possibility of working online and being my own boss but I was really struggling with the lack of honest, authentic, and high-quality information out there for beginners. So after learning the ropes the hard way and becoming a successful freelancer, I set out to help make things easier for creative overachievers like myself.
So, I went ahead and created everything with you in mind.
My courses are made by someone who knows exactly how intimidating it can be to be trying to master 20 tools at once and stay on top of constant updates with each of them. And my hope is to take away some of the overwhelm for you and make you feel like you're not alone in this.
As a location-independent freelancer, I have traveled all over while working from my laptop. My online skills have led to working with an exciting range of talented people, from sole traders to multi-million dollar businesses.
And now, my ultimate goal is to continuously keep improving as an instructor, empowering you to be excited about your future in the digital world having learned valuable new skills within this exciting world of online marketing :)
I can't wait to see you in my courses, happy learning everyone!
