"Hi, I’m Laura and I am the Marketing Manager at Makemedia. Working in digital is exciting as it is an ever changing industry and there’s always something new to be learnt."

Where did you come from?

I was born and raised in the Midlands and moved to London to study and work. After 6 years in London I visited Brighton for a friend’s birthday and liked it so much that 6 weeks later I was living and working here.

Last year I decided to go back to University to study an MA Digital Media. I met Robin whilst working for the Brighton & Hove Chamber of Commerce and the rest is history! In 2011 I won a Gatwick Diamond Business Award.

What can you do?

I have worked in sales and marketing for a number of years now, as well as picking up experience in online video production and PR along the way. At Makemedia I can indulge my interest in digital media and technology and how companies promote themselves online and monetise their audience. I also play guitar...badly.

What do you do?

My role at Makemedia involves developing new relationships with clients and partners and building on our specialist experience in industries such as publishing, events or sports.

I also manage the marketing and PR for Makemedia and can step in to advise our clients on how they can promote themselves in the digital sphere. I regularly attend conferences and networking events – if you see me at one come and say hello!

I run the Sussex Digital Media Alumni group on LinkedIn, please feel free to join here.

What do you like?

When I’m not getting excited about things like augmented reality and viral videos, I’m getting excited about tattoos. I enjoy going to London to enjoy the culture and fun times but equally love coming back to Brighton for beach and BBQs.
