Nikki Carter’s Summary

I began my career working for my father Rick maintaining client's website in early 2000. I then went on to design and manage Tatiana Grigorieva's website which I still do today along with the enova site.

I then took on the role as Rick's personal assistant in 2001 where I also worked in a number of areas at enova including office management, web and graphic design, event management for a number of years. In 2003 I began a degree in Communication and Media Management at the University of South Australia, learning skills in marketing, public relations, design, advertising, writing and editing.
