Project Overview
I developed the 2025 U.S. Marketing Plan for Smart Harvest, a farm-to-freezer snack brand known for its Belgian chocolate–covered fruit. My role involved building the brand’s U.S. marketing strategy, managing social media, creating digital ads and content, and designing a presentation deck to guide leadership on brand positioning and campaign execution.
