Tell us a bit about your role.

I am a paid ad specialist that helps connect businesses to their ideal customer through tailored paid media strategies. I would say my favourite part of the job is probably seeing my clients generate revenue through my strategies. It’s great to see my work pay off and so if they’re winning, I’m winning.

How did you get into what you’re doing now?

I left school at 16 and always wanted my own fashion brand, I had around £1,000 of savings so I started bluthelabel.com! I found a manufacturer and started to create my own clothes, and I created a website and social media and started selling. I soon realised that I needed to be able to find my ideal customer. This is where I found the world of digital marketing.

The covid hit and I got a job doing customer service – a low paying job that has taught me a valuable life skill – how to talk to people. I got to know Pierre (the owner of that company) and he took me under his wing and allowed me to dive deeper into digital marketing, letting me create websites and advertise his companies. This gave me a lot of experience and I am very grateful for that. Fast forward a year later and Ace Metric Media was born!

What inspired you to start your own company at such a young age?

Craving freedom. I wanted to prove that I wasn’t reliant on anyone and that I could forge my own way.

What do you think sets your company apart from your competitors?

It’s so cliché to say but one to one access to me and one to one communication. My company is personal and out for your success just as much as my own. Honesty too I think, like data driven decisions.

What is your go-to productivity hack?

“Monday starts on Sunday” – You can’t just turn up on Monday like “what am I doing this week?” you have to have a plan and come in prepared.

What is the best advice you have ever received?

“If you believe it will work out you will see opportunity, if you believe it won’t, you will see obstacles.” It’s about resilience and learning everyday.

If you could have dinner with any three people (living or dead) who would they be and why?

Warren Buffett, Beyonce, and someone spiritual. Warren Buffett and Beyonce are both legendary in their fields creating legacy. But I am also a very spiritual person and believe in different energy’s so having someone at the dinner table who is able to keep us all grounded and traveling the right path would be great too.

What is the app you can’t live without?

ChatGPT. You’re lying if you say you’ve never used it. But it’s so much more than a copy and paste tool.

What has been your proudest achievement so far either in life or at work?

I feel like I’ve not made it yet so I don’t really have one. There are things of course that I am proud of but they’re not things I would give that statement to.

Finally, what is it that you enjoy about working from Link Spaces?

I love working at Link Spaces because it offers a perfect blend of flexibility and community. The modern, well-designed environment helps boost my productivity, and the variety of workspaces allows me to choose the ideal setting—whether I need a quiet corner for deep focus or a communal area for brainstorming with others. Also, the staff are so friendly and always around to help!
