Within in my role as a Marketing & Advertising Manager at the Hakfoort Group – A Qld based family owned hotel chain, I was required to keep many plates spinning while I looked after the promotional, design, advertising & marketing demands of multiple Hotels and bottleshop outlets across Queensland. The main objective of my role was to constantly grow & evolve each venue in the world of client relations, brand recognition, advertising, social media & online presence.

No two days were ever the same as Cityscape. I really enjoyed the design process from concept to final delivery.
