Co-Founder

ItsEugene.me

“Choose a job that you like, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” – Confucius

My first foray into agency work and consulting. I had a passion for marketing and design, but no clients and zero knowledge of what functions a freelancer actually performed. I was fortunate enough to learn the ins and outs of content marketing from great mentors, and began to collaborate with companies like Dentsu Asia and Cerebos to buff up slide decks and create sexy visuals. These projects helped lay the foundation of my career in design and communications, and allowed me to explore further entrepreneurial options.

Communication Designer (Contract)

•	Work involves entering essential records and data into Microsoft Excel and Powerpoint. 
•	Analyzing and deliberating data to determine decisions.
•	Moving out of the office to conduct market research at stores in relevance to client needs.
