Skills

Communication, Communication is key to building relationships and relationships provide a good starting point for new ideas, collaborations or business partnerships. I pride myself in being well-spoken, sociable and good at networking, and my language skills enable me to communicate to people in different parts of the world., Team work, A former teacher once said ‘Salomé is a big team player and not a big ego’. I work well as part of a team whilst striving to excel independently., Strategy, I chose Strategy and Media Planning in the ‘Advertising and Brand Communications’ course to better understand when an idea works and how to implement it across different media channels. Further, my education taught me to be extremely organised and disciplined, which facilitates meeting tight deadlines.
