  • Oversee the company’s marketing efforts, collaterals, content, and vendor liaison.

  • Digital Media Buy

  • Events & Webinars

  • Weekly Reports

Content Specialist
Construct Digital

I was the go-to person for Digital COPY and content. From tweets and ads to entire landing pages, I had it all covered. I also supported pitches with content direction and strategy.

Oct 2018 - Sep 2019:

  • Content & Copy Writing

    • Digital Ads (FB, GA, LI)

    • Social Posts

    • Blogs, EDMs, Landing Pages

    • Video Scripts

Concept Planner
Click2View

I finally got the first strategy-related role I wanted, and crafted 1-2 creative content proposals every week.

Jun 2017 - May 2018:

  • Content & Copy Writing

    • Blogs

    • Video Scripts

  • Client Management & Project Coordination

  • Proposals & Pitches

Click2View is a content agency, which specialised in videography work. The founder was a real pleasure to work for, and I had really talented teammates.

At times, I stepped in to assist in the execution of projects. The work included scripting, lending a hand at video shoots, sanity-checking video edits, and checking translations.


Marketing Executive
Seacad Technologies

This was where I did the work of 2 persons, and learnt about channel marketing and inside sales.

Jan 2017 - May 2017:

  • Oversee the company’s marketing efforts.

  • Content & Copy Writing

    • EDMs

Social Media Manager
(Freelance)

I grew comfortable with networking, and provided social posts for small local businesses.

Oct 2015 - Dec 2016:

  • Copy Writing: Social Posts

  • Basic Graphic Design & Branding

Due to my previous work at GloStart/Magnet, I met a lot of small business owners. A good number of them didn't qualify for the investments, nor did they quite need a full re-brand. Rather, some of them needed a bit of online awareness. Because I could do basic photography, craft content, and build their initial presence online, I served to meet that very basic level of need.


Copywriter
GloStart/MAGNET

I wore 2 hats, and learnt how to understand the health of businesses from their financials.

Mar 2015 - Sep 2015:

  • Content Writing

    • Articles (Digital & Trade Magazines)

    • Website Copy

  • Evaluation of financials & credit ratings of small business for investments

  • Secretarial Work

GloStart was the branding arm of a newly-established private investment group called GLO. Magnet was a branding and website creation agency. The CEO of GloStart was also one of the founders of MAGNET. My contract listed me as a secretary, but I was doing work that didn't fall under a normal secretary's jurisdiction. I was responsible for vetting the financials and credit ratings of small businesses that were interested in expansion and investments. Because I researched and learnt a good deal about the businesses, it only made sense for me to write the copy for their websites and features on trade/investment magazines.

The opportunity was invaluable, because it helped me develop a strong business sense.


Project Executive
noisycrayons

I wrote the social media copy, chose the accompanying graphics, and created reports for clients.

Jan 2015 - Mar 2015:

  • Copy Writing: Social Posts

  • Social Media Performance Reports

noisycrayons was a social media agency, doing B2C work for mostly travel-related and FMCG brands. I was responsible for the content calendar, UGCs, responding to followers, and monthly reports. I’m thankful for the opportunity to transition from internships to properly remunerated work.
