Born in Bremen, Germany.
When mini-me wasn’t playing in the mud, she was hunched over a piece of paper with a crayon in hand. My first birthday I remember, I celebrated in an art workshop. Foreshadowing perhaps?
A-levels in the bag and some odd jobs like assembling cars for Mercedes and stocking shelves in my local supermarket behind me, I started a dual degree in International Management / Business. I gained a lot: a proper introduction to branding, deeper insights into the corporate world, and real-life experience in my chosen field of marketing. Oh and also the opportunity to continue my studies abroad…
Moved to Hatfield but not for long. The internship semester came along quickly and I made my way to the capital to sell keto-friendly snack bars in the marketing and sales department at ADONIS.
Finished my degree back in Hatfield, in the midst of the pandemic.
Started freelancing as a social media manager in London to learn more about modern marketing techniques, client communications, and running a business.
Had a “duh” moment after not seeing the forest for the trees. The things I’ve always enjoyed most and excelled at have always been the building blocks of great designers: instinctively recognising patterns, visually organising information, dissecting literature [or anything for that matter] to reveal the deeper meaning, etc… To nurture my natural inclination and gain technical skills, I went on a journey of self-education, all while taking on my first branding clients.
Turned my now design-focused freelancing business into ‘Bitemark’, a brand building studio serving clients that want to own their industry with a differentiated brand presence that’s reflective of their mission.
Looking to join a creative team where I can make an impact in a collaborative environment. I’m longing for connection, consistency, and personal development in an industry that, up until now, I've been steering solo.
