Marketing Coordinator / Learning & Community Lead 

Fractional CMO, Marketing Consultant, and Content Creator for 6-figure+ Accounting & Real Estate firms. | Follow for posts about authentic marketing, online business & personal wealth

Some people think of marketing as just getting more eyeballs on something. But the best marketing doesn’t just grab attention—it teaches, builds trust, and creates real connections. That’s the kind of work I do.

I’ve:
✔ Helped 200+ students across nine schools in Laos develop leadership & problem-solving skills through hands-on learning (DFC Laos).
✔ Grown organic traffic by 400% in six months for an online bookkeeping service by refining its content, SEO, and podcast strategy.
✔ Hosted a virtual summit with 500+ attendees and 25 speakers, bringing global experts together to discuss remote business growth.
✔ Led marketing strategy for innovative companies Hub Australia, Birchal, Heatseeker.ai, and Our Kinds—helping them scale, attract high-quality leads, and build sustainable growth engines.


⭐ What I Actually Do ⭐

I help mission-driven organisations create impact through education, content, and community. 

Sometimes, that looks like:
🎯 Facilitating a workshop that helps founders cut through marketing overwhelm.
✍️ Creating content that simplifies complex ideas so people actually engage with it.
🤝 Building communities that feel like real conversations—not just another Slack group that everyone forgets about.

I’ve worked with Digital Marketing Collective, Frank Team, and Realise Business, helped Bean Ninjas scale their Financial Literacy for Xero Users course, and built learning experiences that connect, educate, and inspire.

I’ve shared my approaches in Forbes, Inc., Valiant CEO, Agorapulse’s Agency Summit, and The Content Byte podcast. I believe marketing isn’t just selling—it’s about teaching and creating lasting value.

⭐ What I’m Focused on Now ⭐

I’m moving from fractional CMO work to teaching, coaching, writing, and community-building—work that better aligns with my Projector Human Design.

🌍 Community for Migrant & Minority Professionals – Exploring workshops & memberships to help professionals grow wealth in career, business & life.
🎤 Teaching & Speaking – Leading digital marketing & business courses with academies & organisations.
✍️ Writing & Content – Writing for major publications, finishing my books Dare to Escape & Trust Signals.
🚀 Coaching Startups – Helping founders build content engines with hands-on strategy & execution.
🏡 Tiny Home Life – Planning an off-grid move for more freedom & sustainability.
