I started blogging back in 2010, a while before starting my career in retail in 2011, working in buying for a major fashion retailer. For many years I juggled my full-time job with my digital marketing side-hustle; having worked with brands on a number of online campaigns, like Country Road, SA Tourism, Mr Price, TFG, and Environ to name a few.

In 2016 I shifted my career and took on the marketing world full-time, working with major retailers, travel destinations and small businesses.

And in 2018 I created Afredigital, to support small businesses that I connected with through online marketplace AFRENAI, providing them with strategic content that tells the story of their brands and connects with real people. Instagram has played a key role in my helping build those brands, as well as my own business growth and personal brand development.

I'm excited to help you reach your goals and grow your brands online presence with social media!
