Do you enjoy what you do? Why?
Yes. Copywriting and building narratives for clients' social media channels is at the core of what I do. I've always loved writing (English was my favourite subject!), and throughout my academic career, I discovered my love for the digital space too. Being able to merge my writing skills with the ever-changing world of social media makes my job exciting, and I'm so lucky to have found my place here at TryMus Group.

Why did you select this area of work?
I chose social media because communication has always been an interest of mine, and what better way to communicate with others than in an online space! I love working with different clients and learning new things about their brands that I otherwise wouldn't know in my daily life.

Reliability

What achievement are you most proud of?
Being promoted to Social Media & Content Manager! I am immensely proud to work here and I love what I do.

Your biggest pet peeve at work?

Family, Food, and Peaky Blinders

Who would you swap places with for one day?
Blue Ivy. Beyoncé's lifestyle without adult struggles? Perfection.
