Hi.
I'm Carl.
I'm a Digital Marketing professional based in Manchester, United Kingdom. I have experience in graphic design, creating websites, App building, social media marketing and Analytics. Also, writing blog posts, technology reviews, video and audio production and editing. Please scroll down and take a look at my work.
A little bit about me
For most of my life, I have been interested in technology from constructing Cybot from Real Robots to visiting the Bowlers Computer Markets when I was younger. More recently, between 2013 and 2018, I composed blog posts and produced video reviews for the UK mobile network giffgaff, while helping out with customer support in their community. In 2016, I finished my BSc (Hons) in Multimedia and Internet Technology at The University of Salford, where I studied Video and Audio Production, Mobile App and Web Development as well as Social Technologies.
In 2017, I spent some time at BBC Radio Manchester as a volunteer Digital Reporter as part of their Over to You project, where 100 non-journalist volunteers from Greater Manchester took over the airwaves. In 2019, I achieved my MSc Digital Marketing at Salford Business School, where I studied Digital Marketing and Analytics, Search and Social Media Marketing and Digital Innovation. As part of my Business Innovation Project for this course, I worked at The Pixel Workshop, putting all the theory into practice.
