Hi! Thanks for stopping by!
I’m Julia. I’m a digital marketer and social media expert with 8 years of experience building digital advertising campaigns, developing websites, and constructing social media strategies. My greatest strength is my ability to creatively problem-solve and I have a knack for streamlining processes. I’m passionate about collaboration and efficiency.
Currently, I work in the digital marketing space as a Senior Digital Marketing Strategist for Octane Marketing, serving marine and automotive clients. My primary duties revolve around paid media on Facebook and Google, including optimizing, building, and strategizing paid media plans with budgets topping $300k/month.
I’ve worn many hats under the marketing umbrella in my career, and am pursing a transition to UX design from Paid Digital Advertising.
In August 2023, I opened an event florist, ‘Tropic & Vine’ in Wilmington, NC. It’s a one-woman show at the moment, meaning I built/designed/manage the entire website, manage the social media, do all external event management, work with the wholesalers, design all the arrangements, do all the delivery — everything.
I am a graduate of Florida International University in Miami, Florida. In Spring 2021, I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelors degree in Marketing and Certificates in Social Media & E-Marketing Analytics, and Market Research & Analysis.
I’m well versed in the Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and Photoshop. I am certified in a variety of Google Ad services (listed on my Certifications page), I have built websites on Wordpress, Wix, Squarespace, and Shopify. I served as Co-President of the American Marketing Association chapter at FIU (#1 out of 380 chapters) and have excellent leadership, organizational, and communication skills.
I do UX design, webpage development, video and photo editing, social media content creation, copywriting, and social media management - and I’m always ready for the next challenge.
