Summary

Ready to take your marketing to the next level but don't know how? We should chat!


So what’s the pitch?


I’m a Head of Marketing level hire without the full time salary or time commitment.


I have a passion for driving results and creating impactful campaigns within the FMCG industry and beyond.


Having just completed marketing the insane growth of Ārepa - a Brainfood technology company on a mission to make brains work better worldwide, I have recently ventured out on my own to offer my marketing experience to help brands grow.


Given my love of marketing, I also founded the Marketing Club across NZ and Australia which boasts - community of over 4.5k. This club exists to bring marketers together, collaborate, connect and learn from one another while we become better marketers. It also means that I am essentially a full-service marketing agency with no employees - so any work I don't offer or work I need help with, I can tap into the community.
