Andrew Farrugia

A life-long learning journey...During my first year studying at the University of Malta, I received a scholarship to study at the Kansai Gaidai University in Japan. During this year I successful completed the Asian Studies Program focusing on Economics & MarketingIn 2010, I moved to Canada and joined Apple as one of their Experts in the Flagship store in Montreal. This experience was instrumental in my career as I learned a set of skills which proved to be the key to success for my freelance work started earlier that year.In 2012 I joined Corinthia Hotels and was responsible for managing all the Social Media Platforms for the 3 Hotels in Malta. In the 2 years as Social Media Manager, we achieved great results, accomplished all targets and was later promoted to Digital Marketing Manager responsible of a wider spectrum of digital channels. In 2014 we also successfully launched a new website for Marina Hotel Corinthia Beach Resort (www.marinahotel.com.mt) As a Project Manger for this website, I am very proud of the final product and it is indeed an important milestone in the Hotel's digital presence.2015 is a very important year as I'm returning back to my freelance work and look forward to partner with more organisations to help them achieve their goals. My areas of expertise are Branding, Social Media Strategy and Digital Marketing.
