About Me

I am a freelance content creator with a creative drive to transform client ideas into (fun)ctional and engaging digital media solutions. As a final year Drama and Film studies student, I am continuously inspired by contemporary performance and global cinema. I aim to pursue a career in digital marketing as I aspire to be someone who can integrate my analytical and creative background into strategic marketing projects.

Hooray Health & Protection are a team of UK  based health and protection experts, providing honest advice, at a reasonable price, whilst keeping it as simple as possible.


What they were looking for:

  • enhance  effectiveness of their brand recognition
  • bold, colourful, and animated graphics instead of plain stock images


I created a variety of fun templates for Hooray to customise and chose bold colours because the main aim of the graphics was for it to be fun, and engaging. I sourced emotive character illustrations (license obtained) to perfectly compliment the concept. The final fun look worked to engage and excite readers who would otherwise be stressed or overwhelmed when reading about health insurance!


I created 150+ graphics for their website revamp within 2 months.

Brighton Footgolf is a local sports and recreation business. They've taken the best elements of football and golf, and wrapped them up in one exciting package for the ultimate footgolf experience.


What they were looking for:

  • Content which creates a buzz about Brighton Footgolf and persuade people to book a session
  • Communicate that footgolf is an enjoyable experience for all ages


I pitched an idea for a one minute video whereby children and adult customers were asked to use one word to describe their experience at the venue. I worked closely with the marketing team to develop a plan. Finally, I executed the plan by approaching customers with a friendly attitude, filming them with their consent, and editing the clips together to communicate the joy of playing footgolf. The final video can be found on the website's home page and across all social media channels.


I interviewed 25+ customers and showed effective time management to complete within a week.

Rachel really took our social media activity up a notch and created numerous fun posts and stories to share. For someone so timid and shy in personality, she was ferocious with getting customers to pose for the camera 📸

Keep that lovely smile 😀

Dough Crazy is an imaginary business created by @briefclub on instagram. I enjoy taking part in their design briefs during my free time as they help me nurture my creativity and build my skills!


What they were looking for:

  • logo design, box design, and video advertisment


IMy favourite donut is a strawberry or banana glaze, so naturally  I centred the brand kit around their colours. For the packaging I wanted it to encompass the vibrant experience of eating donuts so customers will want to show it off on social media - which would increase brand awareness. I came up with the marketing campaign "Let's get glazy" - a play on words of 'crazy'. For the advertisement, I sourced a video of someone being tempted by the donut, to signify the craziness these donuts induce! I chose music with a suspenseful drum and celebratory exclaims to accompany it appropriately!
