Personal Project · Jan 2026
I started two Shopify clothing stores selling thobes, one of them for custom thobes. My goal was to get as many sales as possible from a small ad budget, so I had to test, track, and fix things fast.

I started a free online personal development community on Skool. The challenge was getting people to join a brand new group, so I used Instagram content to bring them in.

I've run Google, Meta, and TikTok ads for my own Shopify stores, turning under $700 in ad spend into $3,100+ in sales, and grown an online community to 392 members through Instagram. Today I work in Growth at VERVON, a marketing agency, and I'm a Growth and Marketing Coordinator Intern at The Mahjong Lounge, where I launched a redesigned Wix Events page and rewrote SEO titles on 4+ pages. I'm also a Content Marketing and SEO Apprentice at Liftology and run Instagram for SMCCD Sustainability. Google Ads and HubSpot certified, with Google Analytics in progress.

I started two Shopify clothing stores selling thobes, one of them for custom thobes. My goal was to get as many sales as possible from a small ad budget, so I had to test, track, and fix things fast.
I ran Google, Meta, and TikTok ads and A/B tested Meta ad photos. I built Mailchimp and HubSpot email flows for new subscribers, abandoned carts, and buyers. I ran SEO audits in Semrush, Ahrefs, and Screaming Frog and fixed broken links, missing titles, and slow pages. I set up Google Tag Manager conversion tracking, built Looker Studio dashboards, and used SQL to find my best selling products.
$3,100+ in sales from 57+ orders on under $700 in ad spend, a return on ad spend over 4.4x. The custom thobe store got about 5,000 visitors and 37 orders. Lifestyle ad photos beat plain product photos by 40% in click rate, and my email flows had a 30% open rate and a 3% click rate.

I started a free online personal development community on Skool. The challenge was getting people to join a brand new group, so I used Instagram content to bring them in.
I created and posted 100+ Instagram posts that pointed people to the free Skool community, and I ran the community myself from August to December 2024.
Grew the community to 392 members in about five months. One of my posts reached nearly 200,000 views.

SMCCD Sustainability is a program serving three Bay Area colleges: Skyline College, College of San Mateo, and Cañada College. I run its Instagram account and promote its sustainability exhibits and events on campus.
I plan the content calendar, write captions, design posts in Canva, and schedule everything. I check Instagram Insights to see which posts perform best, then post more of what works. I also create promo content for exhibits on campus so live events and social media support each other.
Gained 300+ followers and raised reach about 30% by using Instagram Insights to post more of what performed best.

Anytune makes a music practice app. In this 10 week Extern program (Jan to Mar 2025), I built an SEO and content strategy to help more people find the app through search, using Google Keyword Planner research plus website and app store performance data.

I mapped Anytune's marketing funnel and audience needs, picked 10 target keywords with search data, compared competitors' keywords to find gaps, wrote better meta tags and headers for the homepage, and planned blog content built to earn backlinks. I completed every project in the program.

A Breaking Games externship focused on analyzing e-commerce and marketing data to understand online purchase behavior and conversion funnels.
A 10 week Extern program (Sep to Nov 2025) on using real marketing and website data to understand how online visitors become customers. Completed so far: the purchase funnel project and the channel data project.
I traced my own buying journey for a habit tracking app, from first seeing its TikTok ads to buying. Then I cleaned and sorted raw channel data in Google Sheets, calculated bounce and conversion rates, and charted the results to show which channels brought in higher quality traffic.

The work surveyed video advertising on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, documenting how platform algorithms and attention-economics principles affect ad visibility. It mapped the competitive landscape of the premium audio market and synthesized platform differences relevant to creative placement and format.
I compiled a searchable spreadsheet of 25+ video ads, coded each for hook, talent, CTA, and production attributes, and produced an executive summary synthesizing cross-platform patterns.
