Hi hi, I’m Annette!
I’m a multidisciplinary creative with B2B, B2C, and digital marketing experience built through work at startups, campus clubs, non-profit organizations, and notably Canada’s largest airline as well as the country’s largest hackathon.
In Greek, the word meraki (μεράκι) means to do something with so much love, passion, creativity, and soul that you leave a piece of yourself in your work.
I strive to embody this value by creating work that is both impactful and reflective of the values held by people I’ve collaborated with, who have shaped me into the person I am today ✧˖°.
P.S I’m currently seeking full-time roles in the Downtown Toronto Area! 👀

In The Good Place, Chidi says “Why choose to be good, every day, if there is no guaranteed reward we can count on, now or in the afterlife? I argue that we choose to be good because of our bonds with other people and our innate desire to treat them with dignity. Simply put, we are not in this alone.”
Even in the moments where I’ve felt lost, I kept growing because of the remarkable people who inspire me. Listed below are some of the people who have forever changed me for the better.
Kim Tran, Gabriel Morales, Noëlle Marshall, Ella Ye, Sydney Lee, Nicholas Luangxay, Serena Su, Dhwani Mittal, Elora Folz, Tien Nguyen, Greta Ofner, Azaliah Alonzo, Gayathri Sudheer, Shahneela Ahmed, Jumanah Ahmed, David Lim, Timurul Hoque Kazi, Shane Tin Yan, Sissi Chen, Atifur Rahman, and of course my beloved partner who has enriched my life in every possible way: Kevin Le ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
Thank you for everything. I am a mosaic hand-crafted by everyone I love.
