About Me
Meet Isaac Ambrose
Hi! My name is Isaac and I have worked in Social Media Management and Digital Marketing since 2019. I graduated from Olivet Nazarene University, located just south of Chicago, in 2020 where I studied Multimedia Communications and Marketing. I am specifically interested in careers relating to content creation or marketing. Whatever the task, I am determined to go the extra mile to meet your media/marketing needs. Equally important, I am teachable, eager to learn and resolute on being a respectable contributor to this field.
