In my own words

I was Chief Marketing Officer at Shroomwell from 09/2023 to 04/2024, full-time in Tallinn. I built the marketing division from scratch and led the team: brand, product launches, PR and content. The launches included Shiitake Extract and the Reishi and Chaga elixirs.

Ran the digital marketing campaigns and the social media channels for the brand.

What guided it

Guided by our commitment to the "Forest Revolution," I worked as CMO to transform the way people perceive and value the mycelium universe, toward a healthier, more sustainable future for all.
