I had the fantastic opportunity to work under Carla's leadership on the Meta ads project focused on the early childhood education sector, and I want to share my experience. Carla is an exceptional leader with a keen sense of strategy and a deep understanding of digital marketing. Her guidance throughout the project was not only insightful but also incredibly motivating.
During the project, I gained extensive knowledge about strategic ad planning and data-driven decision making, along with a profound understanding of the early childhood education industry. This experience has been invaluable in expanding my professional skills and has piqued my interest in educational marketing strategies.
Carla's approach to teamwork and project management ensured that all ideas were considered and the best were implemented, leading to successful campaign outcomes that truly made a difference. I am immensely grateful for the learning opportunity and am excited to apply these new skills in future endeavors.
Thank you, Carla, for your mentorship and for making this project a remarkable learning journey.

I highly enjoyed working with the team at ELF. Everyone is incredibly responsive, supportive, and friendly! This experience honed my skills in developing age-appropriate and engaging materials for teachers in elementary classrooms. I also gained valuable insight using the Ontario education curriculum to create play-based resources, lessons and activities. This knowledge will be beneficial in future projects and endeavours.
