Head of Brand and Marketing

Mota Edu Solutions, formerly Mota Montessori, was founded in 2019 and now thrives to create an ecosystem for early education. The founders are dedicated to providing holistic solutions for kindergartens and children aged 0 to 6, including B2B, B2C, and SaaS business units.

As Head of Brand and Marketing at Mota, I re-defined the brand strategy, guidelines, and positioning, ensuring a cohesive and impactful brand presence that aligns with the company’s vision and growth objectives.

DISPLAY MARCH

Hooray Kindergarten is a bilingual preschool that educates children from 1 to 6 years old. Their programs focus on giving a bilingual environment for early childhood, where the teachers will help your child adapt to an international community and develop his/her confidence and self-esteem.

Before I joined Hooray, they had no active marketing team but a content creator who took care of their Facebook page, and a marketing staff who handled small school events. 

I have worked to help Hooray review and renovate its brand strategy, by interpreting customers’ insights into a brand’s positioning and core values to communicate and engage with parents.

The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for a newer and richer experience
