Welcome to my portfolio!

Hey there! I’m Catherine Tran, a dedicated advocate for businesses looking to strengthen their social media presence. My passion lies in the realms of marketing, branding, and crafting impactful campaigns. I recently completed both my Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in Emerging Media and Digital Marketing from the University of Georgia.


Last summer, I was a Brand Strategy Intern at the Edge Agency, where I gained valuable real-world experience in marketing. In this role, I worked closely with clients, participated in meetings, and collaborated on projects. My responsibilities included conducting competitor audits, crafting engaging social media campaigns, developing website outlines, designing graphics, and content writing. This experience has solidified my passion for marketing and design, and my ultimate goal is to leverage my skills to become a digital marketer.


When I’m not working, you can find me reading my Kindle, doing yoga, or at trivia night with my friends.


Want to work together? I’d love to hear from you and explore opportunities where I can leverage my skills to help achieve your business goals.
