Where I’ve come from

I’ve worked in social media and digital marketing for over a decade across the public and private sectors. Before the Digital Culture Network, I worked as a freelance social media consultant for a range of different arts and non-profit organisations. I have years of experience in both organic social media content and strategy and creating and implementing paid social media campaigns.

For many years I worked in-house for organisations, managing social media for multiple charities, public sector organisations, and one of the biggest health information websites in the world. I understand the challenges you face working in-house on social media, particularly around limited resources.

My background in working with theatres, libraries, publishers, museums, touring groups, and artists means I have a solid understanding of the creative and cultural sector.
