Digital Marketing

Responsible for Mailshop's partnership strategy, the Daily Mail newspaper's e-commerce marketplace.

Part of the Mail Newspapers innovation team that researched and devised new projects such as MailPet and MailCare for the mail brand.

Ecommerce BD Manager

I co-founded LovePlace, a marketplace designed to help couples overcome creativity hurdles and discover new activities and dining experiences. Our platform featured a curated collection of restaurants, tours, activities, theatre performances, and exclusive events, fostering an active community of 50,000 engaged users.

As CEO, I was responsible for developing and executing the overall strategy, driving sales, and leading product development. I meticulously planned and managed events from inception to delivery, including ticket sales and coordination. Under my leadership, LovePlace achieved impressive growth metrics, with user engagement increasing by 30% month-over-month and our revenue goal reaching in the first year. Competing with notable platforms like Timeout, Fever, and Hype App, LovePlace distinguished itself through unique offerings and a strong focus on user experience. This venture led me to repeat this model at The Daily Mail.
