SUCCESSES AS A PUBLICITY LEAD
I led the social media efforts while leading a group of 5. I used Google Analytics to track different campaigns, in-person and online, that drove to an increase of users.
REFLECTION
I learned how to balance and apply many disciplines like design, development, and marketing.
I also learned the value of teamwork and how to work in a fast-pased environment through working in a small startup like SchedGo.
