As a passionate advocate of comms and change leader in enterprise marketing processes I am a regular in-house speaker across the business, hosting marketing and social selling training with business line teams and senior leadership. I’ve also enjoyed being a regular speaker at marketing and communications industry events, including the B2B Marketers Forum APAC and was Chair of the CMO Asia Summit in 2018 and 2019.
I specialise in directing content and insight-led marketing, social selling and lead generation through the content ecosystem, corporate brand strategy and development, public relations, stakeholder and internal communications, hands-on management of integrated marketing campaigns for M&A, service launches and repositioning.
