• Create written, visual and video content for social, web, email and digital ads
• Design graphics and motion content in Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, CapCut or whatever tool gets it done
• Shoot, produce and edit short-form video — Reels, TikToks, Stories, the whole deal
• Keep client voice, brand and messaging consistent across everything that goes out the door
• Write copy that actually makes people feel something — not corporate filler, not AI slop
• Edit and proof everything before it goes live because typos on a client’s page are not the vibe
