Co-Founder

Simply Zesty

January 2009 — Present (11 months)

I founded Simply Zesty the online PR and social media agency based in Dublin because myself and Lauren Fisher thought there was a glaring gap in the market for this sort of service in Ireland. We want to stay dedicated to social media rather than brancing out into other areas of PR preferring to leave that to the pros in their relevant fields.
