Marketing Specialist at Astro Marketing
Advertising / Marketing / PR
I started my career in the Promotional Products industry working for Peacock Promotions with events like The Collingwood Elvis Festival along with working with their clients. I was also taking a 2 year fashion design course and felt that my heart was in two places at once - Fashion and Marketing – and I decided to enroll in the Advertising Program at Sheridan College.
Sheridan required me to take on a sales role and although I felt that this type of position was moving away from my creative personality, I found satisfaction in my abilities and in dealing with client. I found that it was a faster way of learning the marketing management side. This first sales role was with Osprey Media.
