Lori Rae's Profile

Experience Summary

I am promotions! I love meeting and engaging with new people, introducing them to the infinite amount of options that are out there for consumers to choose from and convincing them that the brand or service I am working on behalf of is the one they need in their lives. I love to be in the loop by means of all media i.e. tv, internet, film, newspapers and magazines and I like to keep in touch with friends via phone text and social networking sites. I am passionate about food and drink and love finding new and interesting produce and dishes. I love anything health and beauty related but especially fragrance of which I have a big collection. I love holidays and travel of which I have done a lot of, spanning five continents! I like to keep abreast of technological and scientific developments (I’m a closet geek!) and I am very good at grasping the nuts and bolts of new technologies. Basically I love life and all it has to offer! I have a full clean driving license which I have held for 18 years and a small reliable car in which I am happy to travel anywhere in the U.K for work with reasonable expenses. I am equally as happy to stay away from home for work. I have supervisory experience and work as well alone as I do in a team. I am loyal, reliable, hardworking and enthusiastic about making a campaign as successful as it can possibly be and look forward to putting these values into practice with you.
