Hey everyone!
I'm Julia, a social media manager and content creator. Entering 2026, I’m heading into my 3rd year freelancing full-time!
A few things about me you probably won't find on my portfolio:
- I'm based in Vancouver, BC and last year I learned how to ski
- I'm currently trying to learn how to do latte art (think abstract foam lol)
- I started a social media for my dog and I am determined to turn her into an influencer (someone needs to pay for training)
- I looove to cook!
What I love most about freelancing is how it constantly challenges me and reminds me that with focus and curiosity you really can do anything you set your mind to!
Excited to see what projects are in store this year 🥳
your dog is so cute! 🫶🏻

Hey girlie 😍
Hii Julia:) As a fellow Canadian, I also want to learn to ski/snowboard one year!! How'd you find your first time skiing?☺️
Ahh do it!! It feels like a Canadian right of passage lol It was definitely nerve-racking BUT I would highly encourage you take a lesson, it was so helpful and made a huge difference!

A small milestone that means a lot.
Every project, client, lesson, and late night has contributed to this journey. Grateful for everyone who has trusted my work and supported my growth.
Still building. Still learning. Still going.
Congrats
what does a social media strategist do that differs from a social media manager? i'm so glad you asked!
i just shared what scope of work looked like for the 3isfor team when I served as their social media strategist working alongside their social media manager & creative director.
Good work
A content calendar can tell you what to post.
But good social media management goes beyond that.
You also need to know:
→ When to publish
→ How to respond to your audience
→ What content is performing
→ What needs to be improved
→ What should be created next
That's why I see social media management as an ongoing process, not just scheduling posts.
Plan the content. Manage the platform. Learn from the data. Improve the next post.
Exactly. Good social media management is about constantly learning from the data and improving the next move.
