Meet Christie

Why did you pursue a career in Marketing?

I started with marketing as I was always motivated by the result of performing activities that could bring in revenue to a business. And I realised that's not just sales, a big part of that is marketing. From working part-time in various roles when I was studying, I have realised how important are marketing activities to assist sales growth. From there I have decided Marketing!

What makes Virtual work the right fit for you?

I love working virtual while managing my day-to-day life (I also work full-time as an in-house marketing coordinator for a technology company and a big passion for aerial fitness). I love to tackle my Virtual tasks from Virtual Marketers while keeping a busy life! Love the freedom of I can work anytime I wish.

Most rewarding career moment so far?

I tried to move out of marketing as I thought I would have enjoyed another role in another industry. But you still see me working in marketing so that definitely say something my passion towards marketing. Not long after I made my decision to stay and progress further within marketing, I discovered Virtual Marketers. Fran and Martina have given me great opportunity to utilise my UX & UI skill to design & build the new Virtual Marketers & Virtual Product People website! Not to mention I am a true marketing all-rounder with a wide range of experience e.g digital marketing, branding, content writing, graphic design, events, print ads.

What are you going to tick off the bucket list in the next 5 years?

Travel around the world, have a family and still being able to work anywhere with my laptop.
