📍 Born-free South Africa · Formerly MindsDB
I'm a born-free South African results-driven marketing professional, especially interested in roles that combine content strategy, social media management, and developer-focused marketing—with community engagement as a strong secondary focus. At MindsDB as Marketing and Community Coordinator, I worked closely with product, engineering, sales, and developer relations to create and distribute technical content, run cross-platform campaigns, and grow developer ecosystems—while moderating communities and supporting contributors across Slack, GitHub, and social channels. I'm skilled in content strategy, cross-platform publishing, digital communications, and community coordination, with a track record of strengthening brand visibility and audience engagement through tutorials, launch posts, newsletters, product pages, and live events. Passionate about technology, open source, content creation, and strategic communication—I bring a creative, proactive, and collaborative approach to every project. Following a company-wide restructuring at MindsDB, my role was impacted as part of broader organizational changes; I left on positive and professional terms.
🟢 Open to opportunities in content marketing, social media, developer marketing, technical writing, and community roles in AI/data.
