Laura Lim Aguirre

Summary

Seasoned in the art of storytelling from days crafting content in the tourism realm in Borneo, I've navigated the nuances of copywriting with clients like Malaysia Airlines, Carlsberg, and OPPO. I further refined my craft by mastering SEO-powered content for Amazon listings and web pages, delving deep into digital persuasion.

Now, as a Communications Manager for an international hotel brand across three countries, I'm blending wit with strategy to ensure brand messaging is as irresistible as a beachfront sunset.
